Default Re: Top 10 Sleepers

The 50 fastest list from the September 2001 MCR has a 68 Nova at the top of the list. The numbers came from the pure stock drags. I think that earlier lists came from old magaine road tests, which were pretty inconsistent. For example, November 68 Pop Hotrodding had a 68 L-78 Nova run 14.26, while September 68 Car Craft had a similar car run 15.20. Later, Hot Rod ran a 13.87 with their 69 L-78 Nova. So if you made a list with that old road test data, the 69 looks faster, but there was probably no real difference.
