Default Automatic tC 0-60 + 1/4 Mile Times?

Does anybody know the times for the automatic tC?
I would like to know:
a)0-60mph time
b)0-100mph time
c)1/4 mile time

oh yea and i have another question:
If my friend had a del sol with an exhaust w/ 1 passenger vs. me in my automatic stock tc w/ 4 passengers, would it be a driver error if i won at a race to around 80mph? we made 2 runs and i got a carlength on him both times. (from rolling start)

thx alot i hope i dont sound stupid

Estimates are 8.2 sec 0-60 and 16.2 stock auto. Im sure a i,h,e setup a .2 to .3 sec drop should be possible. And if your going to race why have so many people in a car, not only does it put much more stress on the drivetrain but your endangering more people.

Wow you sound really smart. How about thinking about the other people on the road instead of just yourself.

"yea lol we hit a bump at around 60 all the people in the back hit their head on the roof. i felt bad to let them out cuz it was raining too" he did at least one run with people in his car, while it was raining. i'm all for street racing, but it's idiots like this have give street racers a bad name

I think he's saying....

If you're going to street race, do it safely. Pick a deserted road and make the weather/road conditions are alright. You know very well that street races are unavoidable...but it's just a matter of picking to race in a rush hour traffic or a safer environment, if that's possible

LOL

i think he believes that there are ways to safely street race.

1) if you're on the street there are a million things that could go wrong including: potholes, civilians, puddles, etc. etc. etc.

2) racing in general isn't safe (maybe in an 18 second car it is LOL) so the argument is still ridiculous

endagering people on the street isn't smart though. you have no right to.

ok i'm done preaching

exactly, we do it on a street that only has one enterance, and the other end of the street turns into a highway, it's about a mile long. cars can't come from the other way, the only enterance is where we start and the road is flat so you know if anyone is up infront of you. there are no pot holes, or any of that on the road either.
