Default 0-100 mph?

What is the 0-100 MPH time for these cars? I am trying to compare it to my old car which seemed to be around 10 seconds:

I agree on the street w/ stock super cars, but throw on some drag radials w/ a prepped track and that time drops to low 8's!

What is the 0-60 then? I always thought it was 3.9 which would mean it takes an additional 5.3 seconds to get to 100 from 60?

The same website where I got the 0-100 info has Car & Driver listing the 0-60 at 4.0. No info in 100-115. It does have 0-100-0 listed at 13.56.
