You equate accuracy with a 10th of a second? Please. Try bracket racing, or better yet, index racing. People dial in at the tenth and lose at the hundredth, or the thousandth. Being a tenth off is laughable. I'll say it again. This, and the G-Tech, are toys, not tools.
When I run a 13.498 on a 13.5 index, or a 12.98 on a 12.9 dial and the guy in the next lane pulls an 11.33 on an 11.30 dial......
You want times? Go to the track. You want numbers? Strap/bolt your car to a dyno. Talk about ignorance.

I dynoed it plenty.
I took it to the track plenty.
And my results with a G-tech were accurate enough to be plenty useful, thanks.
The importance of accuracy with these tools is consistency.
If the G-tech read 12.7, but the G-tech -consistently- reads 12.7 under the same conditions, it's a VERY useful tool for testing changes to the car...even if I know the car "really" runs 12.63 at the track.
When I made a change to the tune, or swap a part, and suddenly that 12.7 becomes a 12.5 I can pretty reliably know that the change was useful, and roughly how useful too.
That's not a toy, it's a tool.
If I wanted a tool to figure out my dial in time for bracket racing I'd use a test-n-tune day at the specific dragstrip I'd be running at, ideally under similar weather conditions.
The ignorance is in not knowing what each tool you have is useful for, and in thinking tools aren't useful because you don't understand what they're good for.
