hey, just wondering how accurate the aeroforce is with 1/4 mile 0-60 etc

i have pictures of the readout but it said i ran a 13.7 @99 mph and the 0-60 was 5.30

can i consider these times accurate?

I did a 5.1 with mine and I think that was a little on the low side for the mods I have. (0-60)

I would imagine 0-60 would be pretty close. I saw a 5.0 in cold weather with my 3.4 setup once.

Mine once said I did a 13.2, when my car was 14.5 at best. I wouldn't rely on it one bit.

yeah i would imagine the 0-60 timing being close because i have timed close to that before but the 13.7 had me concerned because that's *dang* fast for such a lightly modded 3800

My logic: 0-60 ought to be close as long as your speedo is right because odds are youre not spinning the tires at 60mph. But the quarter mile times would be based off how far the wheels have spun, so if you just did a huge burnout it would say you did a really fast quarter.

very little tire spin on that run i rolled on it very nicely! i got a new set of sticky tires that have helped quite alot when getting on it in first, wish i had gotten the passenger to video tape (light passenger bout 110 pounds le petit girlfriend)
alas i cant wait to track the car so i can see what it actually runs

I wouldn't trust it much either. Because my car can't do 0-60 in 7.2 and run a 15.3 quarter..... Nope.

This. Also as mentioned spinning the wheels is going to skew the time.

On a side note, both of my aerforce gauges think I've got 614 ft.lb. of torque! :roll:
