Those Lingenfelter cars are awesome. That's a good example of a "real car" and not a purebred race car.
When you get over like 500HP traction is a huge factor in 0-60 and 1/4mile.
Just like cruisin in my cousin's 500hp 74 Nova: mucho wheelspin :013: :005:
Street tires can't put the massive amount of power to the ground. I have noticed a wide range of performance #'s from one magazine's test to another.
They should put slicks on all these cars (or run a prepped sticky track) so traction is not an issue, and see what they can really do.. just put an asterisk next to the #'s so we know it's with slicks.
Maybe that's what the 1.75 seconds was.
