How accurate are track aps?

[BBB]

Hoping very wrong. Showed a 7 second 0-60 lol

Launch control at 3k rpms, perfectly executed shifts through each gear all the way to 60. I have a hard time believing it was 7 seconds.

Perhaps using traction control isn't the best way to do this test.

I feel like the 0-60 isn't particularly accurate. I'm on a GT PP and I can get to around 62 mph in 2nd (according to the speedometer) but the damn thing does not want to give me a time unless I shift to 3rd (I've only tried 3 times in one day, so it could have just been a fluke, I was getting 5.2 seconds with the shift to third, not power shifting). The funny thing is I have used multiple GPS units and they all show the Speedometer 2-3 mph slower than your actual speed. And the cruise control speed is ~2mpg slower than the speedometer (which explains why I was breezing by everyone before I knew this since I usually go around 10 over)...sigh.

There is other threads on this. Track apps isn't accurate at all. but fun to play with non the less.

I tried searching this topic a couple weeks ago and didn't find any decent threads. Is there a general consensus as to how much their off.....or does it vary on each car? Just out of curiosity.......

Is it possible that the track apps were not calibrated properly for the performance pack? Mine seems to be pretty accurate on my GT Premium. :shrug:

I know the speedometer is off for the 3.73s. And I'm sure it affects the 0-60. My speedo is 3mph slower every day.
