    gtech? newbie ?'s

    The gtech is not a set in stone 100% on your 1/4 times...... I would not use it to judge times however it is very good at measuring improvements in your car... Find a long straight stretch that is PERFECTLY FLAT or as flat as possible and it will be close. The best thing to do is get about 3...
