The GTech is about .2 seconds off.
The GTimer is about .7 seconds off.

Both are off in the more positive way... meaning they say they are quicker than the VBox.

And a 10KHZ GPS performance meter is where I'd place my accuracy.

Just a little FYI
I'm sure the GPS unit is more accurate, but it seems like the Beltronics Vector FX1 is fairly accurate as well...maybe within a few 10ths of a sec.

I know that someone here who has or had a C5 Corvette (which he took to the track) said he also has a Beltronics Vector FX1 or FX2 (same internal electronics) which he said is very accurate...within a few 10ths of his track times.
