    I'm impressed...

    Ok, so heres the deal...
    A buddy of mine (jdub) calls me up and says "hey, I have my g-tech pro. Lets see what the e30's got." so i say "ok", and later we go out for a few runs...


    I was thinking the e30 is 20 years old, stock engine-wise, has probably 220k-230k miles with no records (I know, always ask for records when buying an e30...), and all-seasons... The factory specs said it should do a 15.7 so I though it'll probably run a high 16 to low 17...



    Sec
    :crazy:
    at...
    MPH
    :pimp:

    Now supposedly this g-tech is the most accurate model, and this specific unit has been track proven...:mrgreen:

      I've heard great things about them and have seen drag strip results to back up their figures. They are $$$ though, and, IMO, are more of a novelty thing then a tool. I mean, how often do you need to know your 1/4 mile times or HP figures.

          I hope thats an estimated trap speed and not an estimated hp figure?
