New pic and a question
What should I believe from a gtech pro/competition?
Is it probably error of tenths or hundredths?
What about HP? It would seem that the weight that I input in would only affect HP readings (thus making them more suspect than any other output it gives me).
I can't help it. I told myself that it was only for tuning purposes, and I shouldn't believe the raw data that it gave me but I did so well with it that it makes me want to believe it.
Also put it on Wes' car and Richard was able to pull some good times with it.
Oh yeah. Got beat at the Import Race tonight, but got a new PB so I was pretty happy.
There weren't that many cars there, so all of the Supras got into True-street. Wes was able to make it into the great 8 or whatever they call it with a 12.62 (a new PB for him) but was matched with an 11.5 Supra. I didn't make the cut of 8, although Reggie did. I had a 13.2 and Reggie had a 13.0.
In the brackets, I raced a (edit) BSM
w/o slicks or drag radials who also didn't use his nitrous. Dialed in a 13.19 knowing I'd be safe because I couldn't possibly best my previous mark of 13.2 which I was getting religiously. Of course, I pulled a 13.1 something. Even though I lost, I was ecstatic.
Thanks Reggie for the chow. It was cool to represent for the subies. Me and Wes had our HIIC t-shirts on.

Pat, Gtech is within 1/10th for e.t. for me. It's also spot on with the mph, but I know you won't believe it until you get your 12-second paper timeslip.
Wes, your car is fast as ****. That 12.5@107.50mph I turned on the gtech in your car sure felt fast to me!
Grats on being the #5 qualifier!

...I raced a DSM..
BTW, not to nitpick - but that was a BSM camaro, not a DSM. Wouldn't want the Talon/Eclipse/Laser guys getting mad!

Actually the trick is to start earlier. THen it's over sooner because you pass out. Then you have plenty of sleep ahead of you and you don't waste a saturday. I recommend commencing the friday partying at 6pm latest. Then you can assure yourself a goodnights sleep
