That's only valid for 1/4 mile tests, it isn't the true 0-60 as measured by the OEM. The times with roll out are a lot more flattering!

A lot of the US mags do, but the OEM's including Porsche don't. It's used in 1/4 mile to make up for the fact that you can't perfectly align the car with the starting beam. When measuring a speed delta there is no good reason for it, it just skews the results hugely. The above is a case in point - it's 8-60!

seems at least one US mag has got it right!
https://www.edmunds.com/car-reviews/...nd-trucks.html We believe the use of rollout for quarter-mile timed runs is appropriate, as this test is designed to represent an optimum drag strip run that a car owner can replicate at a drag strip. In the spirit of consistency, we also follow NHRA practice when calculating quarter-mile trap speed at the end of the run. So we publish the average speed over the final 66 feet of the quarter-mile run, even though our VBOX can tell us the instantaneous speed at the end of the 1,320-foot course, which is usually faster. On the other hand, the use of rollout with 0-60 times is inappropriate in our view. For one, 0-60-mph acceleration is not a drag-racing convention. More important, it's called ZERO to 60 mph, not 3 or 4 mph to 60 mph, which is what you get when you apply rollout. While it is tempting to use rollout in order to make 0-60 acceleration look more impressive by 0.3 second, thereby hyping both the car's performance and the apparent skill of the test driver, we think it's cheating. |
Ok then for you and Edmunds, I'm over 3 seconds. For everyone else, I'm under 2.8
