Pretty cool....and just think these, I think, are stock stats....some headers, a good tune, some slicks and your easy into high 12's with some of these for sure. They sure seems faster than that in the ones that I got to ride in or drive.

True, but magazines were not against fudging the numbers to suit a number of agendas.
