What exactly do the Performance Timer Accelerometers do?
The products have two basic modes: In the “Timed Run” mode, the Performance Timer Accelerometers measure your vehicle’s acceleration and braking forces during a brief timed run, and calculate acceleration times (including 0 to 60 mph times, quarter mile times and speeds, and 60 to 0 braking time and distance). After you make a one-time setup with your car’s weight, the unit can also calculate horsepower. In the “G-Meter” mode, the Performance Timer Accelerometers continuously measure and display the acceleration, braking, and cornering forces your car is producing.
