Hi everyone,  
I have a question regarding the **Timer()** class.  
I am working with a car simulator for my master thesis, there is a time difference when comparing the logged time in an air application with the time in the simulator logs. This appears to amount to about **2 seconds every minute** which makes measuring time with any accuracy impossible. The trouble is that i don’t know whether it is the simulator that is off or my air application.

If it’s the timer() that is inaccurate, is it possible to correct it in some way? (it doesn’t seem to be possible to output the time from the simulator…) I:-)
