ya i spoke one of the main guys thereand he said the accelerometer on it is accurate on any vehicle even if you have a 9 second car. I will sell you mine for half that price shipped to your door. It is almost new i still have the box and plastic for it. Only reason i am selling is because i have a radar detector now. But it is pretty fun to mess with.

The newer versions are VERY VERY accurate. The margin of error is about .1 sec and 1-1.5mph both on the big end.
