Default 1/4 mile, 0-60 times

Anyone give me a rough idea on what times (1/4 mile, 0-60, 0-100 etc) I could expect from my car. Ill probably never end up taking it down the strip or anything, but im just curious really.

Its a small turbo escos running 322bhp (according to the RR printout I have), with a rev limit of 7250 rpm.

I know every car would be different depending on exact spec but does anyone have any rough idea or know anyone with a similar spec?

0-60 should get about 4.5-5 secs.

1/4 mile should get in the 13's easy.

Regarding reaction times, is that part of the overall time at the end or is it timed from when you actually move off the line? Probably a silly question but never done a 1/4 mile run or even been to a 1/4 mile event.
