I don't tihnk theres much truth to that, unless your right foot is far too heavy and you just spin the tyre's in first or second.

Regarding the cars actual 0-60 time, I beleive it is around the 3.4 second mark, the reason for this is the car runs a race car type differential that was setup more for rolling starts than drag sprints and it doesn't handle off the line launches all too fantastically. Ofcourse the car can be given a ne w differential that can handle that but according to Mr G he doesn't want to turn the car into just a dragster he wasn't to leave it be, 3.4 is fast enough. It will however accelerate to 200 in a claimed sub 20 seconds. Much liek the Veyron.
