wondering if anyone has try'ed this either @ track or street for 1/4 mile times speed..our 75-80 Dragway charges $35 for test/tune and I was told I could only get two runs in saturday because of rain outs/scheduling..
$35 is a lot for 2 runs..2me.

Devices like that will usually read a touch slower ET than you actually run, and a couple MPH off. They do not account for the roll-out of the starting line.

For testing they will work OK.

If you have an iPod Touch or an iPhone you can download an accelerometer app for it:
