there is a calculator somewhere that does 0-60 from the timeslips you get at the track. if you do a search i am sure it will pull up. a lot of people on here were saying it was pretty damn acurate.

how hard is it to push a button when you stomp on the gas and stop it when your truck reaches 60'.

if someone wants to use a stopwatch for this, let them knock themselves out instead of ripping them apart.

0-60 really doesnt matter.. i mean its fun, ya...but with these trucks having no weight in the back it'll spin forever if your really trying to make the truck run a quick 0-60 (im speaking of street/track trucks.. not race trucks w/ coil overs and suspension componets etc.)... best time to worry about is 1/8 or 1/4....

I kno "car and driver" and whatever other mags list 0-60 as a "performance spec", but i'll take the lower 0-60 times... bc you know that this chevy will reel it right back in, in no time

so then 0 to 60 does matter.
