1/4 mile time for sure. Like others have said, it doesn't matter if you have 1,000,000hp if you can't put any of it on the road. And don't even get me started on suicide tuning and dyno queens.

Alright, but when you show off your car to people, do you usually tell hem your hp and tq or 1/4 mile times?
Do you usually say "my car has 720hp" or "this is a ten-second car"?

Of course, real world performance is the most important issue...but assuming the dyno is calibrated correctly and the car is driven competently, the two numbers are directly related.
So to say one is more important than the other is somewhat rediculous.
