Yep, exactly this. The 5-60 is more real world. Some cars lose a second and a half in this metric. The s2k I had was a great example of this. 0-60 was mid 5s, but the 5-60 was about 7 seconds. The only way you would achieve that 0-60 figure was basically with a 6K clutch drop. No one in their right mind would do that regularly.
