Title: My 1/4 mile time
Post by: jacobrownoly on March 21, 2015, 08:18:25 pm
Hey guys, just did the 1/4 mile thing. Used the app called the raceing channel, seems pretty accurate. A dont know how to upload the slip but my 1/4 mile time was 13.07 seconds. Seems pretty good, any thoughts?

Thanks

Yes... really good. @Hurdy (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=53)  tested it against a proper timing box and it was surprisingly accurate

With the greatest of respect.... given your timings I dont need to download it to tell you its pants.  :laugh:

The app i suggested is worth the 10 quid if you want to do timings

Dynolicious Classic.

The thing with these are you need to ensure the road is flat to get accurate results.
