I heard good about the g-tech ss, accurate and the display is easy to read.

I have a Passport GT2 timer. I used it at the track and it was within hundreths of a second to the track times, I was VERY impressed. For some reason though my trap was 1.5mph lower on the unit than what I actually pulled. I havent messed with the roll out features yet that can get the traps dead on. Great little toy, displays acceleration/lateral, braking G's in many diff ways as well, Id reccomend it.

Thanks Alberto. I was leaning toward the passport as I like the look of the passport better because it's not as bulky as the G-tech. One thing I noticed is that it doesn't have the 1/8 mile feature like the G-tech. Heh, who needs that anyway?

I chose the GTechPro RR, so that I can download the data to the computer and analyze it more.

Default I went with the Passport GT2

I got a great deal on it. $71. I've never bought anything used or on ebay so I hope I wasn't a being a penny wise and end up a pound foolish.

Gman, let me know how this thing works.

I have been looking into those 3 also and cannot decide what to get. A buddy of mine uses the Belltronics one and it was pretty accurate when compared to his time slip .002 of a second. That is all I know about that Brand.


on a side note, got anything else for sale?
