But Pete, thats plotting on a straight line - as an engineer, you should know that acceleration is an exponential curve, with the rate of acceleration decreasing as speed increases

Yea I agree about Coorsa's time, if anything 13.55 is a bit quick - 0.95 seconds to get 1 mph more

what were gav's times he gave you?

Umm Gav, if your 1/8 time was 10.8 @ 65 mph, I don't think 12.23 is correct to 60

At I guess, I would say 10 seconds flat sounds about right at those accelerations IMO.
