Message	Two reason why 0-60 rather than 1/4 mile..... First let me say this is not to substitute the 1/4 mile as a tool to calculate how efficiently power was applied....merely a compliment to such a device... 1. Because for those of us who do not drag race or have yet to drag race a 0-60 time would be more practical for the moment. 2. Because when talking to other non-Zers or non-draggers....a quarter mile time/mph has little meaning to them, while most people understand and can relate to a 0-60 time and relatively how quick it is.... But again....this is not to suppliment the 1/4 mile time/mph....in fact if you can supply both the 0-60 and the 1/4 mile time that would be even better.....anyway...thank you
