Guys,, How abt some help with this plzzz

I just got my Passport GT 2 Timer today.

Its a neat thing and does 0-60, 0-100, 1/8, 1/4 mile, G force, breaking from 60 to 0.. everything, just plug in your cigarette lighter and suction cup it to the windshield. I saw one at he P Event in Daytona and for the price now had to have it.

Escort said this unit is within 1/1000th of the stuff used at Daytona and INdy as far as accuracy.

very sophisticated but

i need some data to program into it.

Aerodynamic Drag CdA

anyone know what that is for the TT?

the speed range of the HP, when the unit should start measuring it,, 30 to 60, 40 to 70, etc??

Its a neat gadget and on sale for PCA members for $88 as opposed to $225 until they run out of units.

It does a million things that I have to figure out but first need the basics.

Thanks

Don

I've had this for a while but never got around to trying it out!

If you do manage to figure it out, please let me know! I managed to get one for $100 on ebay a while back. Wish I had waited for that $88 price.

It does a million thngs accurately.

but you need an engineering degree to read the manual and figure it out

in theory,, wow

HP at the rear wheels,, HP at the crank shaft

braking 80 to 0

60 to 0


1/2 mile

1/4 mile

o to 100 ft

0 to 100o ft

on and on

for $88 how could I NOT get one,, just to do 0 to 60s.

I just need some basic info to get started.

thanks

turbocoins is infamous around these parts
Let us know how it works. I have one, but have only tried it once. I had a similar problem with the input values.

I was messing with it today

but it will take me some time to perfect it

it measues braking and acceleration

my two 0 to 60 s runs , not with the sport button pushed,, and not at red line,, were 4.5 s


again,, i want to learn the box before I start getting on the car.

i ll wait until my gas get to 1/4 tank before i get too serious


it measures everything

0 to 1000 ft 1/8 mi 1/4 mi to 60 mph

shows HP at 415, maybe thats at the rear wheels

in due time i will have this little bugger perfected and have some fun with it.
