Watch the revs and watch the starts :wink:
Even so imo the only people to give a rats ass about 0-60 are the idiot boy racers. There pointless figures and if your driving your R like that well your an idiot, and good luck with the transmission and engines as your going to need it from the amount of heldex's ive seen dropped on dealership workshop floors over the years.

This guy on the autocar forum has a point imo
I must admit I am watching with some trepidation the removal of more and more control from the driver in modern automobiles.  This is contributing to the general decrease in skill in the driving population and an attitude on the car will save you rather than you the driver try to save yourself.

How right he is!
Drivers in the USA are a case in point. They could not even control a Prius which is no hot rod! :sick:
