Haha, remember that I'm a recruiter, not a mechanic! All they issue me is a computer, cell phone, and a 2010 Chevy Malibu. They don't trust me with real tools!!!

No Kyle, it just reads speed.
If it goes too fast to lock (like well past supersonic in one of my rockets) it integrates speed from the accelerometer.

Man, I'm sorry to hear that.
You're young. How do you do that to yourself?

Good morning everyone.
