You have to spend good money to get a GPS receiver capable of calculating
it's time and/or position more than once per second. I am not aware of that
being done for timing applications, but it is available for navigation GPS
receivers, such as those used to track race cars (for a race car, one
second is an eternity). I have seen navigation receivers capable of 10
fixes/second, I am sure there are better ones yet. They cost a lot of money.
