Topic: What is your 0 - 60 time for 750

[754]

 I forgot aboutvtge apps these days as I have not used any nor a GPS.
 But the test equip magazines used was probably quite sophisticated for the time.

 Just fun facts and a chance to brag a little. My daughters drag car goes zero to sixty in around one second, covers 60 feet in 1.1 seconds. 1800 lbs and around a thousand hp.
 
That's 1.8 lbs per hp a healthy 750 is around 5 lbs per hp oops, plus rider. 
 
Our jr dragster with a briggs and Stratton ran the same 1/8 mile ET as a 455 GTO. The owner was flabbergasted until I explained we weighed 300 lbs and had 30 hp, his car weighed 4,000 lbs and had 400 hp.  the same power to weight ratio.

I happen to be driving a 2018 Ford Mustang GT this week. Inside the instrument panel software is a tab for Track settings with 0-30, 0-60, 0-100, 1/8th mile, 1/4 mile times. I would expect other modern enthusiast vehicles would be fitted with this.
 I won't be using any of this software, but the Car and Drive review says 0-60 in 4.3s, 1/4 mile in 12.6s @ 115mph.

Hey Kevin...what motor does that have?

I had a 2017 Mustang convertible rental when my wife's 370Z was in the body shop, the 'stang was a dog compared to the Z.  The Z has 332 HP and does 0-60 in 4.9.

Stev-o, the 2018 Mustang GT has a 5.0L 460hp 420ft/lb with 10 speed auto. I’m not in any way qualified to compare it to it’s peers, and I won’t be pushing it to collect any 0-60 times. But the sound..... the SOUND that comes out of it, even when hauling groceries, is luscious.

That is not the Mustang that I drove, unfortunately.  The convertible had the lowly V6...305hp and I just read that motor has been discontinued.  No loss in my book...

Nissan GTR is a performer possible to dream about. Outperforms many Porsche's, Ferarri's for much less money.
I have heard about 2.8-2.9 sec 0 - 60mph

Drouin supercharged 750....2.7

Here is a rundown on the Mustang, instrument panel on page 8-9, complete with Christmas tree. Claimed 0-60 time less than 4s with auto trans.

I have ridden a Kawasaki Concours with selectable riding modes and read about the same on Ducati but never seen or heard of a programmable instrument panel with options.

So it seems Ford has incorporated gschulds $12.99 DLFusion app, or something similar, into the new $50000 Mustang.
