Contact Guinness and see when the next 0-60 trials will be and tell them you want to enter your truck.

At the very least you will see just how fast it is or set a record for TRUCK class


However. Was your 60 with tires spinning?

wow, my brain can't really even comprehend that. 3.6 was already crazy enough, especially in an ECSB daily driver!
