Yup, that'* the old model. I have one and they work well but, are not as accurate due to only having one accelerometer and no temp compensation. They also do not record runs and have no ability to connect to a computer.

Not sure.... but if you do any 1/4 mile racing these things are great.
Buy the RR model if you plan on doing any autoslalom or timeattack.
