I cant seem to find a script for this feature working on the canon G9. Am I overlooking something ? Or not looking hard enough ?

Is there even a script for this ? Like press the button and it will do the high speed synchro shots every 2 seconds or something ?

There's no need for a script - just setup the CHDK settings & shoot

You can use the custom timer for up to 10 shots, or you can hold the shutter in continuous mode.
Also a very simple script could be used for a longer session or to avoid movement of the camera, just with an endless shooting loop, ...e.g. something like this (for 20 shoots):

Code: (sdlbasic) [Select]

for a=1 to 20
print "Shoot ", a
shoot
next a

So wait, im still a massive n3wb at chdk. Where is the insane option for the 1/10,000 speed ? Or any options ? Should i set them via CHDK, or the cameras menus ?

Do not get too excited about claims of very high shutter speeds.
This is often discussed and still needs to be proved.

Even if it were true, what use is it ?

The flash itself may be 1/30,000 sec.
