Performance Testing
This feature oers drag racers the ability to complete the 1/4 Mile and 0-100 KPH performance tests.
You can also download saved tests from your GT Platinum to your computer and analyze it using the Bully Dog Performance Testing Software. The
software is available by free download from www.bullydog.com.
There are two dierent styles available for both tests. The GT Platinum will show dierent test screens based on the style of test that is cur-
rently selected in the Performance Testing Setup Menu.
Speed Sensitive Performance Test
Once this test is begun, the GT Platinum will show instructions to the user to rst bring the vehicle to a stop. Once the vehicle is at zero miles per hour,
the test is ready. The test will automatically start once the vehicle begins to move.
Race Tree Performance Test
Before initiating the Race Tree style performance test it is important that the vehicle should already be at a complete stop. Once the test is begun, the
GT Platinum will display a classic race tree on the screen. As soon as the lights on the tree turn green, the GT Platinum will begin to record the vehicle’s
time. In this style of test, the GT Platinum will not wait for the vehicle to start moving before it starts recording performance data.
SPECIAL NOTE: Street racing is illegal and extremely unsafe. The performance testing feature should only be used on a sanctioned 1/4 mile drag racing track.
