WTH? I could have sworn I seen rules that stated "No Convertibles" ! Maybe I'm confusing it for F.A.S.T.

Cool video and nice look back at how there was a time when you were actually fast in a car that could do anything bellow a 14.0 sec 1/4 mile. We don't see any of the really crazy stuff from back in the day in this video. A couple of mid to high 12s were as fast as it got in this video. Standard issue 426 Hemi cars and 427 or 454 Chevy's were at their best 13.0 cars and 12s if you could find the traction. For a Chevy guy like me this helps explain to anyone to anyone too young to remember why it is that cars such as 67-69 L88 Corvettes or those ZL-1 69 Camaros are the stuff of ICON status. (yes, I know Ford and Chrysler also had a couple of really rare factory issue racers as well) but I'm a Chevy guy and the car I clearly remember was a guy from Hamilton Ontario in the mid 1970s who would come out to Cayuga in a 1969 Corvette with an L88 ripping off mid 11s with no more than skinny slicks and uncorked headers. Seeing him driving that car down the quarter mile with license plates on the car was CRAZY in that time period. His competition in that class all came in on trailers. For longest time as we entered the 1980s and the emissions era showed no sign of ever allowing real power to return to previous highs I really thought I'd never see that again. Today quite a few cars can match or beat those times that old Corvette ran but as we've re-entered a period when the title of "fastest available street car" in showrooms changes with each passing year or two it occurs to me that it's not actual speed that made ICONS of the fastest cars from the late 1960s and very early 1970s.......it's length of time it took before we'd see their performance surpassed by the latest round of "fast" street cars available for purchase that gives that extra "bump" into the status that makes them so desirable today.

I got 5 minutes into the racing and quit watching. No way that 50's-era Chevy ran 14.9 in stock form, if it really was stock, then the decade or so after it was made was a waste of engineering time as many a fabled performance car from the 60's and early 70's ran 14.9 or slower. And there's no way a stock 1979-1981 Trans Am could run a 14.2. One just needs to do some research (like search on: car life road test summary) to see what these glorious cars really ran when tested by magazines.

@justme307 6 күн бұрын
A 1974 SD-455 Formula or TA was at best a low-14 and at worst a high-14 second car. Many magazines the TA back then and that's what they ran. It had 290 SAE net horsepower. Consider cars like the 2024 Mustang 486 HP, Camaro SS 455 HP or Challenger 392 with 485 HP are hard pressed to run low 12 with their 8- or 10-speed automatics, modern suspensions and traction control. No way was this SD Formula stock.
