So I just spent a little over an hour testing my car using the dynolicious app on my brothers ipod...

Best 60 foot was 1.9 seconds

Best 0-60 was 9.8 seconds (in my defense, that was A) with a 2.6 second 60', B) with the window rolled down, and C) with 250 lbs of dead weight from my brother and from the old tires that are still sitting in my trunk.)

Best 1/4 mile trap speed was 85 mph.

Best estimated wheel horsepower was 761 when my brother picked up the ipod before it was finished reading.

Results: I need more practice. I think I can get the 60' down to < 2 seconds consistently, and with none of the extra weight and with the windows up, the 0-60 should improve a bit too.

Heh - I know, right?

I yelled at my car for holding out on me all this time.

Actually - it was because my brother picked up the ipod before the test was done. Accelerated it a TON in a short amount of time, which resulted in a very high estimated horsepower.
