Which Lights?

The scooby does 0-60 in 5 and 0-97 in 13.7. So take your 1/4mile time (which gives us your terminal speed) and subtract your 0-60 time and you get a time that gives you your 60-97mph. Which is : 13.7 - 5 = 8.7

If we do the same for my car its : 14.4 - 6 = 8.4

So 60-99 was 8.4 for me and the scooby did 60-97 in 8.7.

who cares about 60-100? who's car according to the 1/4 miles we have done is quicker to 100? it was 97.8 not 97

I care more about 60-100mph more because thats a better measure of the cars overtaking ability, something which is usefull, as opposed to just racing someone from the lights.

and you should remember, i never said my car was quicker from 0-100mph, what i said was "from 60mph+".

So what we know is that from a standing start the scooby would have been quicker to 100mph, but from a rolling start at 60mph, the 540 would be quicker.

You can be satisfied that your scooby was quicker from a standing start and i'm satisfied that my 540 was quicker from 60mph+. Your not bothered about 60-100mph, so thats fine and now i'm happy that you have FINALLY understood what i was saying !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
