I bought the first model a few years back. I read a lot about it in mags. It's actually very... what's the word... consistant. The magazine articles I've read showed that the Gtech vs time slips times were slower. However, they were consistant. This thing will start timing when the car moves which is a few tenths before it actually breaks the beams.
My problem has been not finding a road that's flat, long enough or remote enough to use it on. The road has to be flat or you will not get an accurate reading. I've tried running flat out in some industrial sections of town, but you need at least 3/4 of a mile of straight, flat( no railroad tracks) road with no one around.
I hear the newer Gtech's are a little more accurate with a few more features but basicly the same.
There is also the problem of staring at that thing while you're flying down the street.

the ones on ebay ARE the gtech pro

and theyre worth 460 at autobarn

well worth it if you can pick it up for $100 or under i think...

and the bueaty of them is u only pay for them once.... and can run til your hearts content... unlike dyno's and 1/4 mile strips...

yeah my mate has one. we use it all the time on everyones car. i recon its very accurate. when ya put it on ya windscreen ya have to push it up and down til its level, then it will have a count down timer etc. then GO. my old engine ran a 20.13, lol yet to run it with the rotary.

well worth the money if your interested in times by your mums car, your friends and your car
