Good point... I did some digging:
http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do.../pageId=127067
0 - 30 (sec):3.10 - 45 (sec):5.10 - 60 (sec):7.60 - 75 (sec):10.91/4 Mile (sec @ miles per hour):15.6 @ 91.5
As for the test, yes, from standing still with the battery meter on full (not the case after the test), and a slightly downhill road, though I can't imagine those factors making a .8 second difference. On the other hand the gtech pro rr has been pretty darn good in the past (only a tenth of a second off measured against the time slip from a dragstrip.)
The 0-100 time is not that far off from what edmunds tested, but I do agree with you that my 0-60 looks to be faster than it should.
Glad to hear that your daughter is ok! Also good that you didn't get a ticket.
