60'

 Beginnings of a Wiki, feel free to improve

As it applies to drag racing, 60' refers to 60 feet down track. This measurement in seconds is referred to as the "Short Time" and gives the racer a good indication of the traction his car has on the drag strip. A slower than normal short time can give the racer information like his slicks are wearing out, his shock absorber settings may be off, or that the track is greasy.
