That's a dangerous little website there Gordon, lots of toys!

Neat find. I haven't seen one of these before, it talks about continuously recording and storing up to 262,000 way points. But I'm a bit concerned that it may not be "fast" enough given that the short track is really only 1 mile. Even if it was left on all the time. All other attributes are great, small size, etc. It really would be a suck it and see.
Keep the shiney side up........

At 100 mph you will get a speed reading every 48 yards. As long as it calculates speed quick enough and accurately enough, then that should be plenty accurate. It would be good to compare to the eTrex to make sure it has a similar reading.

Dr G

You sure it's spam? Might be a real business opportunity for you! You should get onto it!

I understand that you are indeed an exporter of high quality t shirts to the US... maybe not 1.2 Million though!

GW I can't believe you wrote such a long sentance that complimented Gordie and I just wondered if I could write a longer sentance full of dribble that did'nt make any sense at all but the only aim being to end with a whole paragraph that explained that we should'nt encourage Gordie or he might write more.
Your such a kind guy GW

Good Afternoon Christopher, there is no such thing as bad ideas just bad decisions. Say hello to the frog for me....

Finely someone understands me, I'm a bloody stirrer.
The ute is stationary and I have made a very hard decision to withdraw from racing for the short term mainly for the long term good. If l suffer now and pay off the ponderosa then l will be free to race till l'm 80.
So the next couple of years l have to suck it up and not race.
This is one of the most painful decisions of my life.

Chris
And your pulling the donk because?

Newish bottom end with better pistons slightly upped comp, a cam and a new inlet manifold....

Good idea on the racing/mortgage/racing ......that's a battle we're all fighting, and not all winning, in fact there'll be some reading it thinking "f*** , racing/rent..../racing".........

we sure aren't spending whoppers on the car anytime soon, just hoping to squeeze a 2 out of it next year ......and still having a motor that runs.
