i will be using mine at the track in just a few weeks and will be sure to post the results, anyone here want to wager some cash that it is very acurate, like well under 1/10 off from the track clocks. i can video the entire time from run to picking up the slip. so how about it slow?

an idiot huh? how many times have you seen someone hook a g-tech to a top fueler, or a pro stocker...none, never...because ACTUAL TRACK TIMES are all that matter. sure, the g-tech is fine for getting an idea of what you can do, but i don't think they are something to base your performance on. and we'll see how much of an idiot i am when i'm runnin all motor what you are with a charger and nitrous.

WOW!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Nice ride, but only 22's? O well if I had all that $$ i'd go get some big boy 24's <img border="0" alt="[pimp]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_pimp.gif" /> . What's the plans for the interior? I am planning on doing a custom interior in my truck, but cant seem to find many sources.

O yeah went to a show today in nashville that HUNTERS CUSTOM AUTO put's on. Not too many trucks but got some ideas for the interior. Watch ESPN or ESPN2 it's supposed to be on there some time.

G-Techs are so close, they are the greatest thing in the world to test an tune when the track isn't open at your convienence. BTW, G-Techs were tested on those kind of cars. That is part of the factors included for the margin of error. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />

This guy has a great sense of humor. He wanted to get 4 ET Streets mounted to his stock wheels, more for the cool factor than the added traction. I told him they may actually hurt traction since you wouldn't be able to get them hot at all - no way to power brake it with AWD.

He sat there for a second then said - <strong>"You know what would be even cooler? Pull your Z71 up behind the EXT, hook a chain to the receiver hitch, and hold it back and do a four wheel burnout to heat the tires. Once they are hot, pull the hitch pin and pull to the line." </strong>

He likes the shock value of stuff like that. Hell, I'd do it for him if I could get it all on video. Of course, on the video you might see a cadillac dragging my chevy out of the hole. It would be like a badass truck pull. <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

 

That would be a sight!Man that must be cool getting to work on that thing Bigtex!
