Gtech accuracy and cost?
 
Hello,

In theory, I think I would want to buy a Gtech. I was mainly curious about how accurate they are? 0-60, 1/4 mile, etc... Also, I have heard there is no installation...I am planning to sell my car, and this would be something I would want to transfer over.

Can anyone let me know how their experience with them has been?

Thanks,
DoranW

Most users who've run down the track with it say the Gtech is accurate from 0-2 tenths off, and 3-4mph high.

The difficulty with the G-Tech is that the suction cup mount isn't as secure as it should be. Mine keeps falling off. I figured out another way to mount it so it's more rigid and it works great. Another problem is actually finding a place where you feel comfortable doing a 1/4 mile run.

I think they're pretty close, and fun little toys to have! I haven't had any suction cup problems yet, and I've never used the skidpad (lat g's) function yet! Go for it! :)

Thanks, you guys helped me decide to finally buy one.

JL1314 - How close are you to Ormond Beach, FL? There's an Impala owner down there talking smack about beating a Mustang. Do you think you could give him a race?

I think the ET is very close/accurate but the MPH is off by about 4.5%. When I minus 4.5% from every run weve made, the mph always makes sense from my friends LT1 Camaro running 105.5 (100.7) to my 104.5 (99.8) to my friends cars (Camry = 88.6 = 84.6) etc. etc. I always make my runs in 2 places and keep track of what I run and where.
