Default Which practice tree? Coach or anyone?

I'm looking for suggestions on getting a practice tree.

Coach, what do you use?

Is this one any good? http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...rchType%3DBoth

Definitely go with the Biondo tree...I've heard nothing but good about them. I don't have one personally, but when I do buy one that's what I'll get...

I've used the "Final Round II" practice tree by Biondo since '96, and it has worked really well for me. You can choose which tree you want, run a delay, etc., and it will show your average light, best, worst, # of redlights, etc. It's been well worth the money! It keeps ya from getting rusty between races. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Get the Final Round II, its is a very good unit. I also bought the full tree to go with it and I am very pleased. I drive three different cars ranging from 10.50 to 12.40, so the practice tree is very beneficial.

I have three different types of practice trees that I use. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

I use the Biondo practice tree and the PortaTree timing system practice tree. WWW.portatree.com.

I love all three practice trees. The Portatree practice tree comes in a Eliminator 2000 style and a full size tree.(The kind that they use at the track)I have them both.

I like them all. If I had to order just one it would be the portatree system.

I practice 100 lights a day while I watch ESPN Sports center and drink my coffee. <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Good luck to ya. <img border="0" alt="[angel]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_angel.gif" />
