Ok excuse me if I am rude but well I am probably going to come off a little rude. But here we go anyone who has had a chevy can tell you that when you go to push the chevy it is hard at first then as you get it moving it gets easier to pick up speed right? Why it has to deal with inital movement if you want I can explain this in more technical terms but I don't want to go over your head to far. And any dumb a$$ that thinks that all that matters is curb weight and horsepower is a moron.

Ok, sorry for the cheap shot on the chevy.
Also I would be more than happy to get more indepth with the calculations if you want to see what ALL goes into figuring acceleration curves.
