The GtechPro is a much less expensive, also not all the function of the
vericom, but at $139.95 you would expect less.
It tell HP, G forces, 0-60 time, 1/4mile time and mph, 60-0 braking and
maybe some other things. Their website is http://www.gtechpro.com/faq.html
I would be interested in hearing comments. I have not run the truck on the
strip yet, and have not run on any strip in about 15 years. I do plan
someday to run, but probably will not run regular at least with this truck.
The Gtechpro claims high accuracy, but like i said, have not run at strip
to compare the two.

Just curious,
What is a gtechpro? I have a Vericom VC-2000 which is very accurate.
The Vericom said a time of 15.56 if I remember correctly on my 4x2 truck
and I ran an actual 15.28 at the track. You have to use a formula to
deduct the time lost by the vericom for 12" of roll compensation that you
would get at the track.( you roll 12" before tripping the activation beam
at the track). It comes out to .289 sec or so. So as you can see, its
pretty
close.
