Demonstrating her usual charm and humility she threw it on the bed and said....." there you go shithead, don't say I never buy you anything. You can use this on your new car if they ever get around to building it.
I like gadgets and have already used it on my classic and much sought after Vauxhall. Apparently it is extremely accurate.

I always think it's so cute when couples have pet names for each other. ;D

She obviously Loves You then ;D

I wouldn't go that far. :D ;)
She often calls me a bastard.....usually when throwing something large and heavy.
I'm just her kind of bastard. :)

Ahh that’s funny one of my grandson has been trying to get me to buy one all morning🤣

I notice that in all the replies, none have said what they think of the actual device, and whether it's worth 140 quid. Anyone on here used one?
Still, just a good opportunity to take the piss out of the impoverished Lincolnshire landover. ;)

Most are too infirm to take rapid acceleration figures. Quick acceleration could see one or two on here into the next world. >:D 8)
Worth £139? Twenty years ago such technology would have cost literally thousands.
The world moves on and computing power becomes ever cheaper. What was that about Apollo 11 having less computing power than your average phone. Not sure how true that is.

Die Hard 2? Though obviously bastard should read arsehole...

It's used a lot by those who go to Santa Pod to demonstrate how their times compare with the official track timing. Your Evo is probably an 11 second car......when running. ::)

Here you go, Rae.
This type of acceleration would physically hurt and possibly cause the driver to blackout. :y

That's what the bald geezer in the blood soaked string vest always says, not what Major Grant says to McClane "No, you're right, I'm just your kind of arsehole"
Guess who has to sit through those films every Christmas ;D

Balls of steel in the fifties when health and safety was for nancy boys and vegans.
Stopping from 632 MPH in 1 second is going to hurt.
Made of 'the right stuff'.. :y

Now more films for Bruce, I hear. Dementia or something similar? :-\

How does the mighty Signum fare down your private drag track M'Lud? ???
Or is it more suited to your weekly pootle to Waitrose? :)

A couple were OK, but not that one where he plays a corrupt sheriff ripping of pension funds and looked like it was filmed on an iPhone 4...that was so poorly composed that it was actually unwatchable.

I have an immediate dislike for shit thats filmed with that shakey camera technique, thats become all the rage since Blair Witch. I rarely make it past the 2nd scene.

It would have been passable if they had turned off the auto focus and used a gimble, but you could almost hear the camera operator reading the direction out loud and then ignoring it.

I also like gadgets and I appreciate that you are still of a young enough age to be interested in 0-60mph stats, but at my age I’m more interested in gadgets that tell me if I’m still breathing and where the nearest toilet is. ;D
-
and where the nearest toilet is. ;D
I only suffer that if I've succumbed to a KFC at Oxford services, and then Junction 9 is congested...
As to the speed gizmo Lord Opti has, I thought the local constabulary regularly showed you you performance on their calibrated gear :P
-
If they catch you😂⚡️

As I understand it, YZ250 is on first name terms with the local jam sandwich drivers....

Don’t want to tempt fate but I’ve had a good run of luck with the local constabulary recently, but then I haven’t driven since March so maybe that’s relative. ;D (And before anyone asks, no I wasn’t banned ;D )

I read this and immediately thought.....Mr Godfrey. ;) :D
Surely we have to hope for a more optimistic future than that. ;D
If dribbling into a brown cardigan while looking aimlessly out of a window, I think why bother. 8)

It's true Al, I am a reformed character, unlike that TB chap that just pretends to be reformed. ;D

Well, certainly not by the constabulary!

No, YZ, you're a slow learner, hence multiple patronisation courses.
I'm a fast learner, and realise how reckless my driving was, and how speed kills, and how I kill polar bears. And all after just one, great value, informative, worthwhile, excellent speed awareness course....

I bet you even forgot to leave rubber in the car park afterwards too...? ::)

Thanks not my fault, I drive a turbo diesel, so power delivery goes something like...
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
600Nm
Apparently the car may have a option where the throttle isn't an on/off switch, but some complexities are beyond my simple mind...
