This is pretty difficult to do because of all the technicalities. Two cars could have the same 0-60 time but one could be quickerin the 1/4 mile. Gear ratios, vehicle weights i don' think there is anyway to do that. You can however get an approximate time of 0-60, but it's not the most accurate, just by knoledge of acceleration times.

Set up a video camera and a stopwatch in the car. Put the stop watch next to the speedo.........point the camera at it.......zoom in.......press record.............then go.

Rewind tape........then check.............better than having a friend do it outside of the car.
