Not all publications test acceleration on a prepped drag strip. Looks like these guys tested on a dust/sand-filled runway. Obviously not going to get great numbers there.
I was just exaggerating with the sucks part... Im sure it will do mid upper 12's easily. I would love to own one but the price is kinda up there. Who knows maybe when the G8 is paid off and I get bored of it, I will snatch up a slightly molested one.
