To add to the above, I showed Brandon my newly-purchased G-Tech, which I realized I forgot to turn on during our races
.
I decided, I'd do some runs on my own, and see what my car is capable of, measured by the G-Tech.
I went to the access road running parallel to the freeway near my apartments. Since it was nearly 2 AM, I just merely stopped in the middle of the road, with a somewhat straight run ahead of me. I never got another run in, because just as I got done with my run and went down a street to come back around, I saw a couple of cop cars, and didn't want to push my luck. I'm just lucky I don't have loud exhaust that they would've heard
.
I had a shitty launch, anticipating and spinning too much, but this is what I got:
Anybody that knows the G-Tech knows that the thing cannot be cheated...you NEED a full quarter-mile of acceleration to get any reading.
Here's my mph:
Took these as I was parking at my apartments. I left the G-tech blinking it's numbers so I can take these shots
.
From the G-Tech site:
Why is my G-TECH/Pro consistently 2-3 mph above the track?
"G-TECH/Pro is a very accurate machine, and the trap speed result that you get from the G-TECH/Pro is actually more accurate than the racetrack. Reason is that the racetrack averages your speed over a 60 feet stretch between two beams and G-TECH/Pro measures your speed at the exact 1/4 mile point."
