Default Can a 60 ft. time be equated to an estimate of 0-60 MPH?

MY BEST EVER 60FT TIME WAS A 1.69, ALWAYS WONDERED WHAT I WENT 0-60 IN?

GUESSES?

I found a site that use your 1/8 mile et and mph to figure out your 0-60 mph time.

On it's own, the 60ft is not accurate for computing 0-60. You're probably only doing about 30mph at the end of the 60ft even if you launch hard.
