GTech-Pro Model RRWorks brilliant, especially the software where you can overlay your runs & see where you gain or lose time. They are very accurate too (except for the wireless rev detector).Only crap thing is the weird plug. Should be USB.

Member 1,008 Member For: 15y 3m 24d Gender: Male Posted 11/10/10 06:46 PM Share Posted 11/10/10 06:46 PM yeah the later model is easier to use and far more accurate than the 1st model I have both, interestingly my iphone works just as well, and well I always carry it, so I always test things, the gtech sits in a box in the garage so no useI did use the iphone at the drags and it was 0.01 off the et and 2km/h off the trap speed, this can all be altered (not on orig gtech) the roll out etc... very happy mainly though its consistant and repeatable and accurate against it self...thing is they are good for soft launches on the street, but on the street you cant launch like you can at the strip so dont go expecting sub 4's 0-100km/h Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/71024-g-tech/#findComment-1046942 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you would need software to read the abs sensors too pick up vehicle speed.My DashDaq runs on linux and can do 0-100 , 1/4 , 1/2 mile.
