BTW, I guess some cars are made better for launching. Like the new 428i, Car and Driver posted a 5.3 sec 0-60mph as their test result...stunning result. But its quarter mile and 5-60mph rolling start is just 0.4 second quicker than the X1 28i, meaning the 4 series coupe is optimized for launching from a well planned full force take-off. In real life street start or on the freeway, it is not noticeably quicker.
