i always found 0-60 irrelevant on the roads
as long as you can hit 30 before other peeps your safe
last night i was behind a beemer that was behind a merc at some lights
the beemer driver decided during the wait at the lights to go into the outside lane - and with him driving a new 530 i assume he does it alot.
trouble is, the car infront of him, and now me was a merc sl55 amg.
i mean the beemer driver must of been feeling optimistic
he got w**k...
(though i couldnt keep up with either...)

Now you need to seek more achievement so you can go chasing 106 Gti's

bloody quality that
can you imagine their faces!
particularly the 106 driver, being doubly beaten
cant wait to try it, raping them backwards in a bone stock 5-door 
after beating on the arse of some doddery rover driver in a situation where i'd never have dared overtake before, today
0-60 can be relevant, if you're having to pull out onto a swift and populous A-road... part of my main 1-litre beef is that i basically have to redline it twice (would be 3 times if it had the close-set 5 speed!) in order to only get flashing headlights but not horn or screeching tyres.
top speed is often completely ignorable however.
