The Intercomp is best on the market. I own all the longacres, nothing touches the intercomp. Get it first.

Has anyone used the TireRack PSIclops gauge?
Can it be used to adjust one tire at a time?
All that hosing to adjust 2 tires at the same time looks like it would be "fiddly" and aggravating to use at the track for a mid-session tweek...

edit... sorry I missed the PSIclops XPRS at the bottom of the page

Then I'd go with the top of the line Longacre. The intercomp analog is nothing special. The longacre comes in a nice aluminum case/box. It's pricey though, enough so that I'd spring for the Intercomp.

Don't know why you'd want that Longacre though, reading to 0.1 lbs is addicting. The intercomp starts with an internal calibration for temp, altitude and humidity, then an electronics check, then an auto zero. There is no other gauge on the market in it's class.

Do I sense a Group buy on this? I'd be in, always a sucker for another gadget.
