I had both Gtech and Tazzo. Tazzo was more accurate on every single test i did at the 1/4mile. If you want a moving 1/4 track with you that can record 0-60, 60ft etc... go with the Tazzo. It has less functions, but it is spot on.

I don't buy this. How does accelerating at a lesser rate for the same amount of time yield a higher mph for a given distance? ???

Simple physics, spinning the tires costs you ET, but when traction takes hold higher trap speed will occur.Happens all the time!

You don't have to buy it, it's just what happens.

Let me just understand this explicitly,

If you spin your tires off the line you get a higher trap speed at the end of the quarter?

If you cut an awesome short times, you get a lower trap than if you'd have spun?

Are you talking about cars with stock converters? Cars with a large diameter turbo? Or simply drag racing in general?
