Default PDR accuracy?

How accurate is the PDR with 0-60 and 1/4 mile?

Give or take a tenth or two on the 0-60 and a couple of tenths (.3) on the quarter, at least from watching videos I've seen.

The 0-60 assumes a rollout. I presume the other timings do too.

I'm not sure about 0-60mph, but I've experienced a 1/4 mile result as shown on a timeslip from Sacramento Raceway Park vs. the PDR in my car being within .05 seconds or less. (10.555 on timeslip vs. 10.50 in PDR) Note: This was on a prepped drag strip surface and the car was running 18" Hoosier drag radials.

Not accurate on 0-60, in my experience comparing to a GPS VBOX tool. But 1/4 mile ET compared to timeslips at the track are generally close. Within 0.2ths-0.3ths of a second in my experience.
