I just got a new toy.. GTech Pro, it's an accelerometer with a bit of brains. Allows front/rear and lateral acceleration to be measured, plus by calcualtion, 0-60, standing 1/4 mile, 60-0 and bhp at the wheels (calcultaed from low speed acceleration).
It's good fun. So far after a few goes (despite the grit and slush on the roads!) I've got below 6 secs with 0-60 on my 95 WRX. Lateral acceleration will be interesting when we get dry roads...

PS. Fitted Scoobysport lights today, easy and really effective! Everyone should have them!

Where did you get it from and how much was it? I've seen something a bit like that in Demon Tweeks catalogue.

It costs £99 + VAT from Autocar Electrical, 0171 403 4334.
It's "*** packet" size, and "suckers" onto the windscreen, and plugs into
the cigar lighter. That's it!

More info. on their website, www.gtechpro.com.

It's lots of fun, but bad for the tyres!!!!!
