No the 0-60 time is not on the slip. But you can calculate it by using your 60', 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile times etc. Granted it's not dead on, but it's fairly reliable. It's just math.

A little box that looks kind of like a small radar detector that you mount on your windshield and it measures 1/4 mile times, 0-60 times, 60-0, and estimates horsepower. You can turn it sideways and it measures g forces in cornering.

Having attempted a few 0-60 without a clutch drop using gtech, I was able to nail 6.21 twice and 6.3x a few times....

Okay, well taking the 6.2 that Sev got, the calculated time from the track slip is probably close, but maybe more like 6.3 or 6.4. Even so, that's close. 7 seconds on a gtech (which you are saying is optimistic) without a launch? who is driving?? I do a roll start more often than not when going stoplight to stoplight. And that would mean I'd lose to like a civic Si (6th gen) or Toyota celica to 60mph.
