I think he only meant compared to quite a few other cars on the road that are normally under 2 seconds in the 60ft. However, many are 4 wheel drive. The folks from the Stealth/3000, Talon clubs, etc (WRX, EVO) are pretty much sub 2 seconds all the time, no joke from the light. But low 2's for a Mini is good, even a couple guys are 2.1.
