a) i hope you're not posting video evidence of yourself street racing
b) street racing is stupid, please take it to the track and stop risking your life and others. Where I race I have an ambulance waiting for me. Sure I think i'm good at what i do, but you never know when you might pop a coolant line and roll 5 times.
c) 0-60 is important not for street racing but because 60 is a reasonable estimate of highway driving speed. It is a "typical" speed limit for a highway (100km/h here in Canada)... now why you'd be starting form 0 to get on the highway i don't know. I like the 60-70 times better because they indicate real-world ability to pass somebody and I want that to be pretty short.
In response to Basjoos's comment regarding your reasonable acceleration rate and your outstanding highway rating, I really must assume that your highway rating is NOT taken from EPA standard testing, but from years of experience as an eco-driver. You would definately find more typical numbers if you handed over your car to EPA.
