Add a timecode effect.

Two cents worth here. I use eTimer 1.5 and ZD Soft Screen Recorder. With eTimer you can run the clock up or down in various combinations of, h, m, secs and also display msec if you want. You can also choose the color of the timer numerals. Using ZD Soft Screen Recorder you can draw a region around the eTimer countdown/countup and record it to and avi file. This I then place on the top track and use track motion to size and place it where I require. The avi file made is quite small and the dimensions of the capture area are usually around 210 x 55 pixels and once resized into the corner of a screen it’s pretty clean. I find 12fps screen capture works well, keeps the file size smaller and makes the Vegas renders a bit quicker. Basically though the areas of the timeline that you render with the timer will near double the render times, well that’s my experience so far.
