OMG I was laughing my ass off when I clicked on this thread...anyone, and I repeat anyone who claims under 4.5 is a joker. Like another guy said....NFL players in a competitive environment don't nearly run that.

Bo Jackson ran in the 4.1s...Deion Sanders 4.2s....no one here can sniff that...4.3s and 4.4...come on???

Keywords.... Hand timed. It mean nothing. A person's reaction time can account for 1/2 second alone

Just timed myself, pretty happy with the results.

Here's the set up:

32 years old, 5'10" 140 lb wet

1. Outdoors
2. Field turf
3. No wind, 63 degrees, 10% humidity
4. Four slices of carne asda quesedillas in tummy with full fixings (guacmole, sour cream, salsa, cheese - Monterey Jack I think)
5. Nike trainers
6. Work pants
7. Dress shirt, tie loosened, top button undone
8. Timing method: Laser Mississippis

4.34s

Yeah I'm pretty happy with it, also kicked a 20 yard field goal afterwards too. College hash, weak side, right footed.

You wear Nike trainers with work clothes. Sounds more like 50 plus year old. 140 lbs you should have had more quesadillas.

one of these numbers don't make sense. MrPrena 's 99 Avalon probably traps at 97 mph with back seats and hooker taken out. But no way that Avalon is trapping under 11s.

Yes, 0-60 on Avalon will beat X5d for sure.
Yesterday, my wife hit something with Avalon. I am going to get adjustment for the car. It still runs. I hope it is not total loss.

"Is my car total loss?"

I am seriously getting tired of car shopping, and buy a car every freaking year for an accident and/or mechanical failure from commuter car.

Going to progressive tonight to see if we can keep the car or not.
KBB value is at ~$2200-2500.

Since it is running well, I am planning to keep it and do some redneck bodywork.

4.3 forty time is totally believable op just forgot to mention he was running in his M3 while is buddy was sprinting in his tightly laced M4. They are both bad drivers and could not get traction or these times coulda been better. Lol at this tread Gronk and Jimmy Graham are in the 6'5 250lb range and uncoverable in the NFL and they can't run 4.5. OP hit me up I always wanted to be a sports agent I will get Sean Payton and Bill Bellichek on the phone tomorrow, me and you are gonna be rich!
