With GPS Race Timer you can measure the acceleration times of your vehicle. The app supports drag races such as 1/4 mile races or speed-based races such as 100 - 200 km/h and can measure up to two times per race. The app is designed so that it does not have to be operated while driving, everything can be set up in standstill. The measurements are then performed automatically. You can save the race results locally on your phone for later access. The predefined timer settings are: 60 ft, 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, 1 mile, 0 - 60 mph, 0 - 120 mph, 50 - 75 mph, 60 - 120 mph, 0 - 100 km/h, 0 - 200 km/h, 80 - 120 km/h and 100 - 200 km/h, but you can also adjust these timers to your needs. How to use the app: Check the timer settings on the start screen. If they are okay, place your phone in your car so that it has good GPS reception and does not move too much, then you can start the acceleration test. You can adjust the timer configuration in the settings screen. Then go back to the race screen and follow the instructions above.
Doesn’t work
0-60 timer never starts even though GPS signal shows 100% and speed is within 1 mph.
It’s great but
It’s a handy app to have but it’s always 2.0 seconds slow for me. Not a big deal because I know to just take 2.0 seconds off the time
GPS
Aveces el GPS es muy lento cuando voy a 80 el GPS dice que voy a 50
??
The timer doesn’t start until way after I take off. I doubt it’s right or even close
Accurate… So far
My 2018 Audi A3, stage 3 tuned with a few after market hardware additions, turbo upgrade, tires, etc. runs 1/4 mile @ 11.21 at the local track consistently. This app was about .08 too quick. Pretty accurate for an application. If I was to swap the intercooler down pipe and wheels the difference may be negligible. I’ll try that and update my review if needed. Thanks
Rzr xp turbo
Great app
Can’t keep up with Tesla
Maybe my M3P is too fast for GPS, but I got to 75mph before the 0-60 timer stopped at 4.5 seconds. Bummer, but I guess I need to spring for something more accurate. I bet most ICE guys will be okay with this app back there behind me.
Please make sure that the mobile phone does not move in the car during the starts. This would distort the results.
