Windriver Timing the fast loops, Timer.h?

Is it okay to use the timer class in windriver for quick times. I am trying to get the time between the fast loops, but I am not sure how to achieve this. I see in the IterativeRobot.cpp that they implement a timer, maybe instead of creating my own I can get something from that one. This is how I had first though of using it with its own timer (it would start in the constructor):

Code:
void Robot::AutonomousContinuous()
{
	Timer->Stop();
	m_class.Process(Timer->Get());
	Timer->Reset();
	Timer->Start();
}
Or maybe there is a better way of doing this? I want to make sure that I am getting an accurate time if that's possible.
