What car you refering to?

Ive seen a 10.1 from a 2.8second 60ft on a road car!

Yes but I bet it had loads of power and they fluffed up the start

And it was 4WD or RWD

Gaz'd has run 11.9 in his corsa with a 60ft of 2.0 and 11.8 on a 1.9

A good 10 or Low 11 requires a good 60 ft of circa 1.7 or less in my opinion

Obviously there are exceptions to the rule

Yes mate, generally speaking for a low 11 I agree, very hard to make up time lost at the start

160mph terminal and totally fucked the launch.

Either way, saying you need a 1.7 to get an 11 is madness.

Andy Nichols has done a 1.6 60 ft at pod on slicks when he managed a 10.8 sec pass on a glued track

I've done a few 1.7's at pod on road tyres in the westy

No its just a generalisation that holds true for most cars but obviously not all.
