their times look like 1/8th mile times. any fast car trying to do a 0-100 in the street will just be lighting tyres.

My corolla did 0-100 in 3.0 secs. That was part of the engineering test.

Theyre going off their timeslips which will show speed and time at 1/8th track.

100mph is 160km/h, but you were close

Farrk!
Are you for real? Was this that one racing dudes on the street on you tube?
I reckon the fastest 0-100 time I've seen in a car mag was that V10 F1 style Renult Van, which was 2.8
I think a 2005 911 turbo (4WD) is good for 3.8, so thats just nuts

if you can count the timing on the video you can figure out my times here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzRpz9c-t_o) although i wasn't actually starting from 0km/h. I was idling in first gear and just floored it, didn't try to launch.
205 street tyres, manual and wheelspin central
