How accurate is the Dashhawk??

I have one now in my HHP stage II 300c. I know it should only be used to measure my launches and 1/4 times against myself for improvement. But..curious how accurate they are? I got some interesting times yesterday when I picked my newly modded car up.

What I am really wondering is what correlation I should expect at the track versus what I am seeing on hedashhawk. Any ideas??

I don't know bout that model specifically but I have seen several tests of the dashtop performance meters and the concensus is that they are VERY accurate. The auto mags were very surprized when they compared them to their high dollar equipment. Car and driver did a test a few years ago...may look there.

since the dashawk was not included in C&D's comparison I cannot say specifically. But mine is dead on, and I was extremely pleased to find out the level of accuracy is so high.

If I just ran it and set the timer for the 1/4, can I post it? In other words, I haven't figured out how to use this thing yet and don't know if I need to do something if I want to "keep" a run...or are they all just in there? I even took a pic of that first 0-60

Doesn't this suggest that the Dashhawk is a little optimistic then? Am I looking at this wrong?
