This is a product that has been around for a long time. The factory website doesn't show it as a current product, so I am guessing these are a blowout of old stock. Will it be replaced? I don't know, but I doubt it. At the $200 list price I have always found these units I wanted one, but this is not an item you will use all the time, and I am ( cheap / careful with my money. - pick either )

At this price, and suspecting that when they are gone they will be gone for good, if you have ever wanted one, now is the time.

It works well, as advertised. Checked my performance and have been passing it amongst friends. After it makes the loop of my friends, it will probably be used infrequently... but this price I can justify this type of use. If you are a car person, adjusting your tune - either motor or handling, this is a very inexpensive alternative to visiting a dragstrip or skidpad. I am not sure the skidpad type of numbers are accurate, but reviews indicate the acceleration figures are indeed accurate with this device.

Have fun, but be careful where and when you use this. The seller is not "Amazon" but a third party that sells through Amazon. I found them to be very reliable, fast shipping, and fast to reply to an email.

Very easy to set up and use.

Less features than the GTech Pro, but a much lower price.

Very accurate when I used it at the dragstrip. Relatively accurate with HP and torque numbers (5%) compared to engine and chassis dynomometer results for my car.

If you just care about the actual numbers, and don't need plots of the results, this works fine to see how well or poorly modifications work.

I was plesantly surprised that the GT1 G-Timer was as accurate as dragstrip timers. My "local" dragstrip is 104 miles away so I will save enough $$$$$ on gas to pay for it over time. I also plan on renting it out to other car guys I know around town who are always tinkering with their cars and want to measure their gains. I usually do three runs and take the average. Except for two aborted runs because of excessive tire spin out of about 15 passed the GT1 is consistently within a tenth of a second and 1 MPH. You will also get more accurate times using the same launch techniques each time and testing in consistant weather conditions. I prefer 70's with relatively low humidity. You can get your weather conditions, elevation and pressure info from weather related websites. A car will always run better in favorable conditions. The GT1 can't be beat for the price and the features are very easy to use. Just watch out for cops. Triple digit speeds doesn't help to make friends in the law enforcement community. I highly recommend this product.

Great It works and gives you the data you want. Horse power, 0-60,1/4 mile, braking distance. and the graphs for g's also helps with cornoring you know wher you max is and you can litterally see how fast you should take that same corner next time arround so properly used the gt1 does a really good job.

The Escort Passport GT2 is a powerful tool and a fun toy, especially considering it's low price and ease of use. It is useful for analyzing vehicle performance as well as honing your driving skills. It has lot's of display modes to show G forces as well as 0-60 times and more. You just suction cup it to the windshield, plug it into the cig lighter and go.
