anyone have one?

these things look pretty cool, and they seem to work decent from the videos i see online.

kinda skeptical because they are getting all of the information from your ciggerette lighter though.

The only info they get from the lighter is RPM

If you correctly calibrate your vehicles weight, they can work well. A friend had a 04 Mach 1 and with the correct weight (with him in it) the times it gave we within a tenth of a second to Bradenton's official timer.

I have one iam trying to put in my car but it seems to move from box to box. I believe tom has the roadracing one.

I had one, got me into so trouble trying to do the quarter mile in my truck (wouldn't you know there was a cop that had me on radar right at the end of it)... I sold it after that... but the Gtech said 86 MPH and the cop said 86MPH...

i am considering buying one, but i dont want it to be a constant reminder of how slow my car is hah.

only have tuesdays off now, so i'm trying to treat myself.

Here's the specs from the best run I've had. My first couple runs were about 15.5 seconds. I have a stock 5.0, KN Filter, 3.27 Factory lockers

I had a friend with me and I just weighed my car on a scale today and found I was about 300 lbs low for what I calibrated on the gtech. Not sure how it would affect the numbers with the change in calibration.
