G Tech/Pro Competition Performance Meter

Equipped with three high precision accelerometers. Accelerometers are sensors that measure changes in speed(acceleration). G-Tech/Pro Competition measures 1/4 mile time, for example, by intergrating acceleration. This process is called Intertial Navigation. If you start from zero and you know how much your speed is changing(acceleration), then you know what your speed is after a givin time period. We start from zero and we track time and speed and that gives us distance as well. For Horsepower measurements the user inputs the weight of the vehicle.

New Features
Intelligent Shift Lights:

Coventional tachs have a set RPM shift point for all the gears. Yet, depending on the gear, many cars deliver different horsepower at given RPM due to RAM-air, Turbo spool-up time, etc. During a drag race, the new Compition provides optimal shift points based on actual delivered horsepower as you get close to redline. For everyday use you can choose regular set-RPM shiftlights.

Cornering Lights:

Just as you are approaching your favorite corner you get this funny feeling in your stomach. "Did I go in too hot this time?" Now you don't have to worry anymore, the Competition will warn you with blinking LEDs. The frequncy increases as you approach the cornering limit of your car.

RPM Sensing with no wiring:

We are particularly proud of this new feature. With our new proprietary technology G-Tech/Pro Competition measures your cars RPMs. Yes, we know it sounds strange, but there is absolutely no wiring and no installation. It works on any car, even diesels and MSD ignitions. Very cool stuff.

Reaction-time measurement:

Another very cool new feature. First, you dail in your roll-out, then G-Tech/Pro Competition will show the count -down tree accompanied with LEDs and all you have to do is start accelerating. Your reaction time is measured from the lights to the time you crossed your roll-out point, just like on the Drag Strip. This feature is great for practicing or just having loads of fun.
