I tried it at the track and found that it was reading fast. I tried about
four runs and determined:
1. That it is VERY consistent.
2. It always inflates MPH by 3.
3. It always reduces E.T. by .1

|the G-Tech seems to be dropping time. Mark, You said you ran a 14 earlier
|with the G-tech, but you took it out to the track and couldn't get into the
|14s. Is the G-tech unreliable? or should you just add about .5 a second
to
|the final time it gives?

|<< BTW: Measured it with the G-Tech earlier this evening...
