Save the money, you don't need it, less humidity smaller jets, but you will not have to worry about it. Just run what you brung to th track, don't get caught up in all that hype/garbage. Make your dial with what you ran and go with it.

I've used one for several years. I have found it to be very accurate but just like anything else you have to put good info in to get anything good out of it. I went with a Computech RaceAir Pro last year and it works even better than the Tag I had been using.

BTW I'm a Computech dealer so if you need any product info or pricing just PM me or email [email protected]

I see people carrying them around in the lanes first and second rd, they dial off them. Normally when ya get to a money rd ya dont see to many of them hanging around. Dial by feel, who your racing, and remember you can always grab the brakes ! :lol:

Mark,
I see alot of guys using them along with computers that tie in to there cars. I don't have either but I 'm an old school guy. They say they help you dial as the day goes on and the info really helps. But as far as what kind, I don't have a clue. I can find out next time I'm at the track I'll ask some of the guys what they use. Hopefully somebody on here knows.

Like I said alot guys swear by them and I see them using them all the time. I'd like to know what brand is the best too before I spend my hard earned money.
