Thumbs up 1/4 mile times using G-Tech last night......

I finally got the oppurtunity to check my 1/4 miles times last night.

I only did two runs.

1st- 15.32 @ 98.5 mph (crappy launch)

2nd-14.63 @ 103.3 mph


I was REALLY happy with that second run I did. Great launch and shifting. After that, I just drove home. I wanted to end it on a good run and plus, didn't wanna risk getting a ticket.

Actually, with that ET and that trap speed it looks like you got a super shitty launch. With you saying you got a great launch I'd have to say that the G-Tech is off. Your ET should be way quicker with that trap speed...

Dude........ to me, any launch that I don't sit there and bunny hop for 2 seconds is a good one.

the mph posted on a Gtech will be off of what a track calculates because the gtech gets the speed from the end of the quartermile, at a track they have two laser spread apart and calculate the time it takes to travel between the two to get a average speed in that section. so the Gtech is mainly only good for E.T.

Makes since.

All I was really curious about was the E.T.

Wow. That's a lot of questions. It wasn't mine. It belonged to a friend at work and he let me borrow it for a weekend.

I think the best thing for me to do would be to offer you this link.

http://www.gtechprosupport.com/support/

Download one of the user manuals and you should get the answers to most of those. There are also several other resources there for you to check out.

HTH

I heard that lowering springs actually help out with the hopping. I hope to find out soon.
