No, not how fast can your car do it in, though feel free to say it. How long does it take you? I can do it in under 5 seconds, on average I would say I do it in 6-7 seconds, I have places to be. I was told I would "grow out of it" nope, 20 years later I still like to accelerate quickly. I don't understand slow drivers. (0 accidents, 0 tickets) Also, for all you euros, 10 kph = roughly 6 mph.
Something that makes me grind my teeth is hitting a red light on a 45-70 mph road behind a car or two, light goes green, and... it.... takes... FOREVER for people to get up to speed. They aren't driving a damn 60's VW beetle, but modern cars. The majority of 4 cylinder cars today can hit 60 mph from 0 in under 9 seconds, why the hell do people need THIRTY+ seconds to get up to speed? I have to concentrate on my foot to accelerate that slow, it would take effort on my part, it would be less lazy to do it faster.
I understand if you don't want to jam the gas pedal down like I do (time saved/similes per gallon > $) but come on, can you get to speed in 10-12 seconds? I could have a full drink in my car, no lid, and hit 60 in 12 seconds without spilling a drop. I would like to hear from some of you slow pokes out there as to why. Like honestly, I would like to know. So much time could be saved and traffic could move more quickly if you learned to put your foot down. I'm not asking you to annihilate the speed limit, just GET to the limit in decent time, and then let me pass. Then we have the people who have to find another slow driver and stay shoulder to shoulder so that nobody can pass. Again, why? I mean trust me, I'm getting around you, why be a dick about it and make it possibly dangerous?
So I would like to here from you guys, how long do you take to get up to speed when you are front of the pack and the light goes green? If you are one of the slow people described above, are you that fanatic about gas? Don't give a f**k about the people behind you? (or rather trying to annoy them) car in bad shape? Too busy playing with your phone?
