Back in the day magazine 1/4 mile tests
This is a pretty cool site that posts all the 1/4 mile times from multiple magazines from back in the day.
Just think what those factory cars would have run on todays tires.
One of my favorite articles was Hot Rods "13 second grocery getter" which was a 1969 396/375hp Nova that ran 13.87.
