Pete:

I totally agree. But, if you read the second thread above (the thread from about a month ago) they believe the 60s-70s road test are gospel, where as a lot of todays tests are garbage. Someone even said they thought the older road tests were more accurate. They see it only as a one way street.

I went to Edmunds.com and spent about 2 minutes finding some road tests of cars they said could "whip" a lot of older cars, and they cried foul. Said I went and found the slowest tests I could, as most of the LS-1 cars they claimed would run 12s stock were inthe mid-high 13s. They don't realize there are too many variables to consider (like you said Pete), and that the older cars are less consistent than the newer "idiot proof" cars.

Hey, Pete, did you get the fax?
