Is this true ? : Zero-to-sixty actually doesn't matter so much ?

i like seeing 60-0 numbers too.. just as important.

But the fact (in that article) that the five-to-sixty took longer than its zero-to-sixty is pretty interesting to me.
Someone in the comments made clear why that is - in 5-60 the car is stuck in the low RPM area where it produces less power. On a 0-60 the car is launched already at higher RPM/power range.

This is insane!
