i still don't understand why people give a sh** about 0-60 times.. hell, even 1/4-mile times obsess people for now reason .. there are sooo many other stats in the "speed" dept. that are crucial to making someone believe a car is "fast" ..

5-60mph is huge.. b/c most of us will realize someone wants to race AFTER we start rolling ..

30-50mph, 50-70mph are also clutch .. b/c most of us will appreciate the passing power the car has on the highway

60mph to 0mph is pretty darn important to me... dont' know about you guys .. but braking power is a big plus in my book

cornering G's ..

the list goes on ..

Dont you guys know that your A/C TURNS OFF AUTOMATICALLY AT WOT? well if you didnt know, now you do. A/C is not an issue when racing your TL.

cornering G's ..
TL-S is decent cornering, but don't push it or you end up like me with the front end continuing straight on a sharp turn. Luckily there was extra room on the shoulder to get the traction back. It wasn't that the car leaned too much - springs/shocks are fine, it was the skinny-azz tires that broke loose!! Hopefully the new TL has wider, more performance oriented tires.
