You can do a simplified analysis by taking a published number for the car like a 0-60 time (5-6 seconds, or whatever), assuming constant acceleration, and calculating out the distance based on simple kinematics equations. It's not exact, but probably close. I attempted to fight the law a few months ago as I detailed in this thread where I laid out the equations you're probably looking for, but the law won anyway.
