Default g-tech ?

Ok I know alot of you think its crap but right now until I get to a track it is all I have. So if you have ever used one let me know because I just started using one my friend gave me tonight. I got the following times when I did three runs by my house.

16.03
15.94
14.97

This is on 93 honda civic coupe ex with the suspension below and a home made air intake...all i have done for weight reduction is to remove the **** in the trunk...so the trunk is empty...i think the first 2 are realistic...but the last one is that possible with my setup?

Thanks in advance

First two look realistic, third was downhill.

Yeah man the GTech just is not consistent enough to rely on.

When you get the chance just try and take it to the strip.

Have you guys seen the ads for the new G-Tech? Supposedly going to put the old one to shame- not that it would be to difficult to do that

When using your G-Tech you have to make sure the road is flat. Just hitting a bump will throw it off. The most important thing is make sure it is "Zeroed" out (0.00) before it flashes --GO-- otherwise will get another untrue reading. With ideal conditions it should be accurate to at least 1/10th of a second.

You guys need to stop I was just saying that I thought the first 2 were correct the last one I did launch way better...so I was just wondering I'm going to try to do 10 more runs and get an average...I know the civic should run 16.8 around there on a stock setup...so I figured the first 2 were cool and the last one was off...is it possible to reach low 15 or high 14 with good launches with this setup? I'm new at racing and like I said the track here is closed already so please just is it possible or no..but from what you said I guess no unless your just being dumb?
