What are the new G-Timer products?
The G-Timer Vehicle Performance Computers evaluate your vehicle's
performance by measuring its acceleration, horsepower, cornering and
braking forces.
What exactly do the G-Timers do?
The products have two basic modes:
In the "Timed Run" mode, the G-Timers measure your vehicle's
acceleration and braking forces during a brief timed run, and calculate
acceleration times (including 0 to 60 mph times, quarter mile times and
speeds, and 60 to 0 braking time and distance). After you make a one-time
setup with your car's weight, the unit can also calculate horsepower. In
the "G-Meter" mode, the G-Timers continuously measure and
display the acceleration, braking, and cornering forces your car is
producing.
- Why would I want one?
The G-Timers provide an easy, fun, accurate way to measure your
car's performance. If you tune or modify your car, the G-Timers let
you measure how much your vehicle's performance and horsepower have
changed. For drag race, autocross, track event or road race
enthusiasts, the G-Timers can measure your vehicle's performance as
you change components, set-up, or driving styles.
Are G-Timers hard to operate?
We've designed-in the same intuitive "one-button operation" and
industry-leading performance that our radar detectors are known for.
For a timed run, just press the "Start" button, then accelerate
whenever you are ready. At the end of your run, the results are shown
automatically. For the G-Meter mode, just press the "G-Meter"
button.
How do G-Timers work? How hard are they to install?
They work by sensing the acceleration forces, using miniature internal
solid-state sensors. There is no connection with your car's speedometer.
No installation is required. The G-Timers simply plug into your vehicle's
lighter socket, and mount to the windshield with the included suction cup
mount.
What are some to the GT2 GTimers features?
The G-Timer GT2 will sell for
$249.95. It has an ultra bright blue vacuum fluorescent graphics display
that adds additional options for displaying G-Meter information. It stores
10 runs in internal memory, and has the capability of downloading data to
your laptop, Palm, or PC (requires
optional cable and software). It also includes a "remote control"
power cord that lets you select modes and start timed runs without having
to reach the buttons on the main unit.
G-Timer measures 5.5" W x 1.7" H x 1.4" D.
