Dragy GPS

I was thinking of trying this
Is this a good product and what most are using for measuring time?
Or are simple phone apps just as accurate?

Dragy is the best out there. and yes the time is accurate.

One of our most popular products, strongly recommend it

More accurate than a V-Box for 1/4th the price.

Is anyone using and basic phone app that is comparable? I realize it wont be as accurate as a dragy or vbox but just curious if anyone has experience comparing an "app only" vs. a real device.

In my experience, phone apps just don't have the accuracy needed for true performance data measurement. It will give you a huge ballpark estimate, but it won't be repeatable, nor reliable against other sources.

I used the Vbox to test my cars in the past. It was accurate to within less than a tenth of a second compared to NHRA approved drag strip. Vbox ran 11.96 , Track time ran 11.93. Trap speeds are off due to the way the drag strips calculate trap speeds. (average of last 60ft I believe).

I'd be interested in a Dragy GPS only because the VBOX APP is terrible!

Looks like the vendor who sold you the product was a good student at marketing course lol.

Vbox Sport is 20Hz while draggy is 10Hz.
Both works just as advertised.
