Looks like it is possible to beat the manufacturers figures. To be honest I'm not sure i could knock anything off that figure and it does seem to take a lot of effort/luck (not talent as i don't have that) to get the time.

Here are my current best times for some other intervals:
40-60mph = 2.5s
60-80mph = 3.6s

Sadly I couldn't work the phone while driving to get a screen shot of the times so everyone will just have to take my word for it.... unless I do it again of course.
So it CAN be done! Brilliant! Any tips on how to get that time? Launch revs, sidestep the clutch or just feed it in slowly etc?
