Need a "g" meter?

Geeks has them for $19.99. I want to see what the blond really can do!

http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=KAT-MATRIX&cpc=DS

I just picked one up, along with some computer memory. I almost bought one yesterday, for double!

Anyway, no affilliation with Geeks, blah blah blah.

You can make a G meter out of a large 7-11 slurpee you know.

Nice, for geeks, they aren't very smart.

When my wife covers her eyes and shrieks then I know I've either (1) got enough horsepower or (2) got adequate cornering capability. That's all the g-meter I need.

That can be taken so many different ways. She must be a very happy woman.

I'm glad someone else got my double entandre. I guess I've become a dirty old man...

Don`t you have an iphone? There`s already a G-meter inside (and in the ipod touch too). Then, all you need is the pocketdyno app, which is free.
