Heads up on a good deal for Vbox (the device that measures 60-130s!!!)

It's for the Racelogic Performance Box, normally $499+shipping, $400+15 shipping in the GB. 20 spots needed to activate the GB, 11 already taken and it's only 1 day old. See GB here, let's get some more Vbox numbers, especially with the big singles around the corner!

Thanks for the heads up.

Those interested need to act fast. I just noticed the post below on the group buy thread.

I never ever managed to find a Performance Box at even the smallest discount. It's crazy. However even for this GB price other interesting mods can be added to the car, so the decision is not easy

I own a Performance box myself but I don't see why you would want to buy such an old product at twice the price of GTech-Pro? http://www.gtechpro.com/ss_fanatic.html

I love my Performance box but I think there are better (cheaper) alternatives now.

Yeah but the problem is that the VBox is the only one trusted...

I could be wrong here but I understand the auto forum communities (including this one) will only accept results from a Racelogic Product.

Preciesly. The Gtech doesn't log slope, basically making it useless for the critical 60-130 measurement.
