0-60 timer off?

[2.3lowperformance]

I recently got a 2024 ecoboom, and finally gave into the urge to do a (multiple) 0-60 pulls with the 0-60 timer. To my surprise, I ran like 2 3.0X times, and then a 2.95. Is ford trolling or is this car actually that fast?

Search. There are already a bunch of threads on how inaccurate it is

Only able to say it’s inaccurate when using a third-party verification device. There have been reports of some anomalies and of which the particulars have not been fully addressed. However, that being said, there do seem to be a preponderance of outliers in the extreme (only questionable when really good/low?). Take the results with a grain of salt and more or less use as your own personal tuning tool. Throw out the best and worst and look at the remaining averages.

+ 2 seconds... Your car is on average a 5 seconds car

The 0-60 mph time on my 2019 Corvette Z06 was around 3 seconds, so I'd say your timer is off.

Yep....its off big time.....but dont feel too bad- they are off on the S550 too - so its not like this is something new..... heck if I look at my screen it shows I pulled a max 1.6G on a left hand corner ...on the street- I mean the Cup 2s are good....but they arent that good lol

Its amazing you can buy a draggy that is accurate but Ford a billion dollar company cant make accurate track apps

I’m wondering if theirs is just based on wheel speed? You can spin those tires up to 70 while your not moving forward.

It most certainly is, hence the wild numbers. A little spin in 2nd or 3rd gear and it will think you've hit 60

For what it's worth I didn't spin tires, I would imagine the timers themselves are just off somehow (good job ford)

It was fairly flat, I might go back out later and actually record it to rewatch the timer
