REV, you're right, it is very difficult to launch a FWD car. I think on average, the 60' is .a-.2 behind a comparable RWD. There are a lot of GTP/GS drivers cutting 2.2 and better 60' times. As far as the sentra with the 2.8. Remember, Ricers can't drive!!! Seriously thought, part of the imports problems is having a high horsepower/low torque FWD car. Too much rev's and spin forever, not enough and completely bog. A classic example is the older v-6 SHOs. On a roll they are pretty quick, but try launching them from a start, and you better be a damn good driver to cut anything below a 2.2.

Anyways, knowing your enemy is good. That's why I'm still here. J/K.
