G-Tech Pro RR...pretty simple stupid setup. I need to setup the pitch @ the track, though. Pretty cool features...drag mode, road race mode...more than I can tell you now. I'm just starting to read the owner's manual to figure out all I can do with this thing.

Just another gizmo to test against dyno and track results.

Looks like a cool device, how do you connect it to the car? Does it require any setup?

Just plug it in the cigarette lighter and calibrate it for your your car...the hardest part is calibrating to get accurate data. I'm in the middle of that right now.

GOOD! we will need an accurate base line on your car, before your 1,000 HP. VRP Twin Turbo install at C2.

A hush comes over the crowd and from a lone voice we hear dyno dyno dyno that erupts in to thunderous roar from the masses. OK, back to my popcorn.

Based on my own testing, the G-Tech Pro RR's 1/4 mile times and trap speeds are pretty accurate. It almost matched the track times every time. However, the dyno features and others are not so much. Just make sure you caliberate the RPM feature as accurately as you can.

Congrats, you'll definately enjoy this one..........
