How do you spell S-L-O-W?

Roll out is how far the car moves before the timer starts.

Well shoot. That ain’t right.

I’m sure there’s a reason but sounds like it would yield numbers that were neither accurate nor consistent from one tester to the next.

it was 63 F, dry road surface, smooth. I was at about 300 feet above sea level.

Have a trip to Santa Pod and see what you can do there. there are some test and tune days that are pretty quiet so you can get a good number of runs in. Shame the number of Strips in the UK has dropped again since Shakey was closed, York is pretty poor (unless they finally improved the surface)

And one more thing... how do you not bankrupt yourself trying 0-60 times in the UK with the fuel prices!, I'm so glad I've moved over here haha ;-)

In over 10,000 miles, I've done one.

Fair play. I've yet to get any kind of time on my GT through a total lack of traction on these terrible Nitto G2 Tyres.

Actually my friend 0-60 in 4.8 seconds on the street is excellent. Its hard to hit the number on the street. Maybe if you had AWD vehicle you can achieve the advertised numbers easier.

Tires and road will make a big difference, you got to keep trying.

I see you have an auto that makes it easier, on my 6speed manual 2014 GT I got best 0-60 4.8 with a ford racing tune (advertised 4.4).

Definitely try drag mode. I’ve gotten 4.6 out of my GT Premium A10 on the not so great F1 All Seasons that comes on the 20” wheels at 80* ambient.

Drag mode actually makes a big difference with a 0-60 test. Just remember to keep it pinned to the floor the whole time.

Also, I know Ford doesn't want you to know this, but the Euro model is kind of neutered. There's an exhaust particulate filter/GPF PLUS the new intake changes for 2022 and 2023. I suspect you'll never get a time that a US spec car can get, and that's okay.

On RHD cars the exhaust takes a different more convoluted route away from block.
Possibly effect performance times.

Motor trend. Please move on.
