Hey guys,
Does anyone have a G-Tech or similar performance measuring device? I've got a Beltronics FX1 accelerometer. It measures, acceleration, braking, turning Gs, etc. It's a cool little device. My buddy took it to the track and the times on the device were only off by .01-.03 (based on multiple runs). That's pretty good for a cheap performance tool (paid $120 5 years ago)! I know these tools are not 100% accurate, but they are a neat toys and give you a good idea of where you'd stand for 1/4 miles times, 0-60 etc.
Please note that I use a closed down street on private property that is not accessible to anyone else. I don't race on public roads, and this is no way a street racing thread.
The best 0-60 stat for the Mustang is 5.67s. Pretty terrible, but I can't seem to hook up! The best 60ft time I got was a 2.15. Best 1/8 mile was like a 9.45@77mph or so. Pretty crappy. Hopefully I can manage some better times when I hit a proper drag strip come April/May.
My '05 Impreza RS though (winter car), got good times! I tested it out last night with a buddy since we were bored
. Best 0-60 was 7.60s and 1/8 mile was 10.03@69 with a 1/4 mile of [email protected]. Pretty decent for a 170hp 4 banger.
Does anyone else have one of these things, or have tried one? If you do, post up your stats.
