It really was only a matter of time. We all know the British Racing Green could never keep up with red.
For all of you who don't mind being in the slow lane, you can now save 20 bucks. :)

I did some research - the British Racing Green version is being pulled because it is too fast. The TGAA (Thermometer Governing Association of America) decided it was unfair to the rest of the members to have such a fast thermometer and required Thermoworks to discontinue this model and promote the slower red therm.
Thanks, Pappy for giving all the members a chance to get the fastest therm available! ;) ;D 8) 8)

You are correct Doc! The speed difference (0.000621 seconds faster) was enough to not only catch the attention of the TGAA but the DTM (Department of Thermal Measuring). When they got involved all hell broke loose! The only saving grace for Thermoworks is they make both the fastest(green) and slowest(red) colors. So the DTM issued some minor fines and let them off with a warning.

Good to know, Muebe - all these governing agencies can be confusing. ;D ;D ;D

What's really scary is I believe these agencies may actually exist.

What's really scary is I believe these agencies may actually exist.
And millions and millions of dollars were wasted to study it.

That is just a false story started by those that bought the slow green one. The real reason they are stopping production of the green is that the demand for the fastest orange model has increased to the point where they are phasing out other colors so they can devote resources for the orange.

Orange?????? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ::) ::) ::) ::)

This is very unnerving........think I will stay with my Taylor from Wal-Mart ;) ;)
-
Orange is the same color as a safety vest. And safety means safe. And safe means going slow and steady... Not fast.
Green means go. Nuff said 8)
-
All I know is I put my green one and the orange one down on the grill shelf, turned around for 5 seconds and the orange one was in my neighbor's yard. The green one wasn't even off the deck yet. I'm just saying ....

The 2 of you may need to seek therapy for this fetish...... ;) :D :D :D

That is called intimidation. The orange one is scared of the green one's speed. Took off to hide in the neighbor's yard. Scratch the surface and I bet your orange one might be yellow underneath :P
-
Y'all are all crazy, the RED one is SO fast I check the IT of my butts in the SRG without removing them :D
-
you guys are funny, I had to go and see what color mine is and I used it last night. ::)

the orange one is so fast it gives the temp before you think about taking the temp.

There you go, smart man ;D That way will have the slowest (orange to the fastest red) If I got a new one it would be the snake skin one
