I would be interested too, I have the g-tech pro. I enjoy it and it seems pretty accurate, but I know the competition is supposed to be able to do alot more such as monitor A/F ratios with some accessories. :cheers:

A/F ratio? Sure??? I didn't know it could. I used ot have the Gtech Pro myself and it was a great little tool. Only thing is it doesn't calculate wheelspin.
I tested it on a track with 0 wheelspin last year and it was within .08 too fast on teh ET, and 2.6MPH too fast on the MPH, on each run.. Thats DAMN good if you ask me.

I own it and updated to the most current 2.0 version software and its quite the trick system. I love the built in shift light and the crazy data that it can save and present no track runs. It is well worth the money. It has tree lights, 1/8, 1/4, trap times rpms vs speed so on and so forth.

Make sure you buy direct from them its the cheapest price you'll find...........mad charges $100 bucks more than the factory online buying.....they are the :reddevil ..........

Any other questions just ask and I can tell give some responses

Ohh ok Cool.. Another thing I heard about it that it does not need to be PERFECTLY Level as the Gtech Pro is that true? How do you have yours mounted? Also how viewable is the LCD display? Is it mvery small and have to squint to see, or pretty easy to see across the dash? :cheers:

Re: Anyone using the new G-Tech Competition ? (MrNuke)

I have one of these too. The display is great. It lights up like indeglo and it is very visable. No you don't have to have it perfectly level. You don't even have to mount this one on the windshield. You can put it anyware as long as it is mounted. The shift light is vey cool. 2.0 Version? I didn't hear about that. How do you do that? I guess I should look at the directions they will probably say. Did it cost anything to upgrade? What did the upgrade do?

Now you have..... :cheers:

How do you do that?

Instructions are very detailed on the how too

Does not say anything, must go to site.

Did it cost anything to upgrade?

Free downloadable here......http://www.gtechpro.com/SWdownloads.html

What did the upgrade do?

Added all kinds of functionality........measure LATERAL data for around the curve warnings for tire slippage......very cool mulitple drag runs with data storage, mulitple cars, light tree, you really have to read it all to see it all. Very big upgrade

Hope this helps
