0-60, 1/4 Mile Gauge
So one of the coolest features I think is that gauge that tells you 0-60 time and 1/4 mile and all that other stuff.... I dont recall any other factory equipped car having gauges like this.......... You guys that already have your cars, what are your times????? Also if any of you go to the track soon, how accurate was the gauge compared to your time slip?

RE: 0-60, 1/4 Mile Gauge
So, I have had mine since Monday. 92 miles so far and I haven't gone above 75. Once I hit about 500 miles, I think I'll let her rip.
Does anyone actually know how to set the computer to measure the times though? I want to keep my owners manual and all the paperwork in the original plastic and never open it, but there are so many fancy gadgets, that I might need to open them so I actually know how to use them!
Hopefully someone can give a resource where I can read about it and not have to open the plastic.

I have 600 miles on my car and tried the 0-60 last night twice.
1st run was 5.54 and the second was 5.17. I'm sure that when I try it again and again it will get better.

I thought with the Auto-Stick the car wouldn't shift until you shift? Mine shifts at 6200 rpms. Do I have to have the traction control off?
My best is 14.3 with an easy start and shifting around 5500.

If it is like a mercedes or BMW tranny, it will shift prior to redlining even with the auto stick. I assume this is true for the challenger, BUT I DON'T HAVE ONE YET!!!!
