I have one, i recorded a 0-60 time of 5.54sec in my MY00 PPP down a back road that didnt have the best of surfaces!

I also recorded a g-force figure of .2 whilst driving round the back roads.

But! i find the G-Tech doesnt always respond to the button for selecting the reading you want it to give and that its hit and miss weather it will measure 0-60 or G's!
