well i still disagree with you on the gtechs, etc. I had a gtech pro in my car, and from what i understand, a similar device is used by road and track.

the units that the mags use are not several thousand dollar units. whatever brand/model they use is generally available to the public as well.

but enough said about that.

Read this month's C&D to find out what they use. You may be surprised.

Unfortunately, I never listen to much of anything C & D has to say. IMO, they are the worst of all the auto mags. Heck, I love the whopping 14.9 second 1/4 mile times they get with the S2k!

I would say that the 6.2 that a lot of magazines post comes from the Honda figures.

Honda advertises the S doing 0-60 in "under 6 seconds" in the 05 brochure.
