Re: Weather Stations?
Chris, also note; while a weather station is valid to help understand performance changes, it is just another tool. There is no substitute for keeping good records and paying attention to how your car changes with conditions.
Go into the usage of a weather station expecting it to give you a guide but not to be dead-on in all situations.

Re: Weather Stations?
I like the Altronics stuff. I had the hand held for a year or so. Then came on a good deal on a weather station with pagers and more options. They have a feature that will show bad runs that are entered. Which helps keep the junk runs out of your data base but you still need to pay attention to what you are putting in it. I think the best part is the customer service. Always willing to help and if you ever have a problem with it. As soon as they get it in they get it fixed and right back out. I messed up the keyboard on mine. Sent it in on a Monday and had it back by Friday. Not sure if she still works there as its been a long time since I needed their help. But when you get in a real bind and cant figure something out ask for Kate. If she cant fix it over the phone you broke it real good. LOL And if you ever have a chance to go see Fred do his sales pitch and explain how weather stations work. Go see it no matter what brand you get. I saw it at the drag expo years ago. He gives away alot of good info.

We use and stock the Computech Race Air Pro. Their product is great and their contingency checks are nice too.
