sorry to jump in on the thread but I have a question... I have sixrt's getch (the normal $70 jobbie of ebay) and dont know how to use it...

what do you do to set it up... I know I have to have it level but how do I get it to work??.. am asking as I dont have the instructions... I just have the gtech I borrowed but have never used one b4.

thanks

No prob Jetute,

1- slide switch to either centre or far left to turn on.

2- It will flash Accl & GFrc, push button when the one you want is displayed.(most likely Acceleration)

3-then choose either far left for horsepower or centre position for timing.

4-If you chose GFce, then far left is for continuous G's and centre is for instant G readings.

5-make sure it's level by reading 0.0 G's

6- Press Button and it will display GO

7-It will then start timing when you start accelerating

8- It will blink a time when you reach 60mph.

9- Either brake to a halt to get that reading displayed or keep going until it displays 1/4 mile time & speed.

I tried to make it as simple as I could, hope this helps

BTW, 10- Keep eyes open for boys in blue.

Jet I hope your not planing on doing that on public roads!!! think you better come use my private test track!!!

public roads?? ppffffttttt .... had your private track in mind all the time

it is worth remembering to do a run both way's, and if there is a big diff, more then likly the road is not level, although second run should drop a tenth because of heat soak.

I have the Pro SS; works real well and easy to use - just plug-n-play...

Got mine on eBay from a retailer based in Geelong - for $290 brand new in box. He advertises on Ebay all the time - so you should be able to find him..

Is this the thing we are talking about-

Cos if so there are heaps on ebay and cheap as.

Just checked this is an old version (10yrs old), so not sure how good they. But if they do work alright might be able to pick one up for under $50.

Got my cheapie on E-bay for $46 :banghead:

They are supposed to be just as accurate as the good ones, just not as fancy, no bells & whistles, as good ones can record the data etc.

Do they all work out 0-60mph, or can they also read 0-100kph?
