Default Gtech owners!

Just got my Gtech RR in the mail today. I haven't gotten my new tires in yet and with nearly 600hp it's a little cold to do any trials with RF's.
But I was curious about how it works on differnt level surfaces. I know a couple spots that I can do runs in but they are reletively uneven. How much of a difference does it make? also I can't seem to get it to read 0.00 G's when i'm sitting still. best I can do is have it read like 0.03 and it jumps a little. Any advice or is that normal?
Also how far from RWHP is the net HP readings?
Any extra advice?

Most GTechs are very sensitive to vibration and movement. Even a windy day will make it difficult to Zero the meter. Try shutting the car off to Zero it, idle shake and vibration may be the problem.

I never paid much attention to the HP readings, I depend on local Dynos.

My 1/4 times with the GTech vary as much as .3 sec run to run but compare favorably to times posted here on C6's with equal mods.
