I just wanted to point out guys although we are comparing weather and elevation, there are also alot of mechanic factors that will make a big difference in the 0-60. For example, our cars are geared with 2.77's in the rear axel or basically they are geared for higher speeds so they may lag in the 0-60 but they will not run out of breath below 150 .. I don't know how the turbo 4's are geared in the rear axel but they seem to have alot more torque down low than the V6 does and if they have taller gears, the power difference stock isn't really great enough to offset those differences for the V6. The other thing is WHEEL packages and there's so many of them that come from the factory. The 22" wheels will probably help your 0-60 more than the 18" (larger diameter = more acceleration).

Just my $0.02

I tried to see if it will stop the timer if you stop accelerating, like for example if it starts when i start accelerating I stopped before i reached 62 to see if it will stop and give me a lower number. It didn't, the timer stayed at 0. The timer will only give you the number once you reached it. Maybe its a glitch, I don't know. But I certainly don't believe it myself and much like how i did on that original post I'm not going to act like my car is any more special than any other one, I just wanted to share the crazy number i got.
Holy sh*t, Thats what SS's are running... what a phenomenon!

It's amazing to see your car in the 12's...
