    I can see the uses. I was thinking more on the curiosity of acceleration to 1/2 track, 3/4 track. Sounds like a fun deal.

    If I can ever get over to your place when the weather is above 45. I will bring a few accelerometers, a gps, and a data logger to tie it all together. Rig them in the boat and gather more information than you can deal with.

    For those looking to buy one of the little yellow Etrex's, check out this deal from WalMart.

    Thats still a pretty good price. I paid $80.00+ tax at a Wal-Mart store and didn't need to deal with mail order. Keep in mind as was already mention by Morg these things don't respond instantly and you need to stay in the throttle for a few seconds to allow it to "catch up" otherwise you will get something less than your actual top speed. Accuracy is suppose to be close to .25% and is great for calibrating speedometers.

    I keep looking at that G tech Pro deal. Apperently its very accurate.Anyone ever tried one?
    Im still shocked that the flatty drag guys are not running some kind of data aquisition, you could monitor more stuff than could ever imagine. you could even get some sensors on the plates to see how you plated the boat on that particular run.
    anyways, Ive got a gecko garmin cheapo gps, it seems to work perfect for what I do. Next time Im getting a waterproof one though.

    I have the first gen G-Tech meter .It works great.What Fiat needs is the new version G-tech pro for car stuff.For a boat the garmin units are great.
