Ok, i have to find a way to get this into my modding budget....I think I'm going to get the Model SS instead of the RR....I don't have a great urge to download....plus it's only $199.99....

Seriously considered the SS but why not go with the RR. I knew if I had got the SS I would have wanted the RR. Shipped already and should get it 04 January. Will be playing in My Escort until the Stang is back on the road. Just need to work out how much a tank of gas weighs?

OK. I just got this about an hour ago. Will play with it in the Escort tommorow and let you know how it is. Lots of options from what I can see. Looks like a nice toy, smaller than I thought it would be, about the same size as a Razr V3 phone and about 2" deep.

I will.

The 2003 Escort ZX2 Sport accelerates like no other potatoe known to man with a 0-60mph time of 45.60 seconds at a peak horsepower rating of roughly 15hp@8000rpm. Lateral g's suggest that this car would be more at home at the bottom of a very deep lake and the GTechPro would be much more comfortable out of the winter beater and back on the dash of a Mustang.

What are you testing it out in? Isn't your Mustang out of comission for the time being?

I am driving my winter beater ZX2. It will work in any car. From what I have read so far you just need a weight and it will do the rest.

Okay. Quick test today. Raining hard and misunderstood the staging tree system (Idiot!!) but the results for the Escort are in.

1.59 sec reaction time
95HP @4785rpm
110 peak torque
0-60 in 15.65seconds
1000' speed 71.5 mph

Feel the power!!!!!!!
Many more results but these were basically all I could remember. Max lateral G's, braking distance, top speed, etc, etc.
Suggest the RR version over the SS due to PASS system of download PLUS 2 hour datalogging. SS would be a little limited for what I want.
Had shift point set to 3000rpm. Shift lights go from 1 blinking to 2 then to 4 going crazy. Blinding!!!
