i had a go with one of these last night, set it up right, set the angle up right etc.
stopped on a flat duel carriageway in worksop, waited till it said go and floored it, came back at 6.56 secs. the speedo was just over 60 at the time, i think it should be about ryt as it looks it in comparison to my 1/8 mile time and speed at pod.
not bad to say i had quikgtimike in the car and a passenger seat too lol.
anyone no owt about these? reliabilty? as some ppl on 106owners say there pretty accurate.
cheers
What type was it? I've got the G-Tec Pro RR, lovely little gadget. Used to have the older type that you had to tilt to get level, but the newer ones have 3 accelerometers so no need to have it level. I had mine in ready for the pod, but as I didn't run I cant comment on accuracy although they are supposed to be good. Digital Tacho on it used to work fine, but since I've had a re-map I cant get it to work properly no matter how much I calibrate it. Quickest I've got was a 3.8s to 60, that was on a slight down hill with a 7000rpm launch.
G-Tech.
me and mike have looked into getting one...
Mike timed my car with the phone and got 6.5secs to 60
Was it easy to set up Widdo??
It'd be interesting to stick one in the Camaro for a run and see what it comes up with.

I got 5.3 seconds using my Seiko sports watch.

You got a cigarette lighter in there? You can borrow mine if you like? G-Tech that is.
No fag lighter but we could rig something up with crocodile clips and bullet connectors I'm sure
I'm not sure whether the unit would handle the vibrations to be honest, if we hit tyre-shake it'd probably ruin it in all honesty. It would be nice to try though anyway.

Ohh you're all a bit advanced for me...I just did the 1 elephant..2 elephant..3 elephant thing...I gave up at 20 elephants though.
You'd be better off using a calender Jess
ha ha
lol HJ i really cant see a 306 gettin that time lol
it must be the older type, had to tilt to get level. right pain to set up lol.
i went down worksop and was talking to this lad who didnt really no what it was. he sed i cud keep it for a bit but then found out they cost like £120?????
yep they about £100 me and mike found one....
love the 306 comment

lol id guess about 8.5 secs on a good day. and thats generous compared to most rallyes (my starlet was 6 dead on stopwatch but 7.9 at silverstone
)
