West Chester, Ohio, January 8, 2003:
Escort Inc., well-known radar detector manufacturer and marketer, has announced its entry into the
fast-growth vehicle performance accessory marketplace with the introduction of its new
G-Timer™ Vehicle Performance Meters.
Escort's new windshield-mounted
G-Timer Vehicle Performance Meters will give
sport compact, drag race, and sport car enthusiasts a tool that can accurately measure their
vehicle's performance. The high-precision
G-Timer products measure vehicle acceleration,
speeds, and times (including quarter mile and 0-60 mph times), perform peak horsepower calculations,
and measure and report continuous G-force readings including acceleration, braking, and cornering
measurements (including 'friction circle'). The
G-Timers are user-friendly (no manual required)
and the unique power cord with built-in remote control makes operation simple and intuitive.
The high end G-Timer GT2 (SRP
$249.95) includes the ability to save up to 10 timed runs for later downloading to PC, laptop, or
PDA, and has an ultra-bright high resolution Vacuum-Fluorescent Text/Graphic display. The
value-priced G-Timer GT1 (SRP $149.95) provides
a more basic feature set and an LCD display. Both
G-Timer Vehicle Performance Meters can be
seen at Escort's CES display booth #2116.
Escort Inc. created the high-performance radar detector market in 1978, and has
been issued more patents in the radar detector field than all radar detector manufacturers combined.
ESCORT also manufactures the award-winning
Passport 8500 X50,
cordless Solo S2,
Passport 7500, and the
Passport SR7 radar and laser detectors.
