Because the online calulation for 0-60 is linear which would skew the 1/4 mile ET/HP calcs. Your acceleration is not linear over the 1/4 mile. It's part logarithmic.

Wow!!!

Just to give you an idea of what other perfomance cars run 0 to 60 in, here are some stats:
My Pontiac powered rail = 1.10 seconds
Supra Twin Turbo (stock) = 4.7 seconds
Lamborghini Diablo = 3.4 seconds
Ferrari 550 Maranello = 4.2 seconds
School bus fully loaded = 47.325 seconds


My new Best 1/8 mile is a 5.29 @ 133.76 mph

[Your 0 to 60 time is: 1.06]

I guess this Ford pickup would put one on that Pontiac powered rail!!!
