Fastest car out there today? there are many...new Corvettes are 13 seconds in the 1/4 stock, I've seen modern challengers do 11s and the guy was on a laptop tweaking the tune in the staging lanes. 340 cars were fast "in their time" just like Fox bodies were in the mid 80s. It's really about bang for the buck can a guy buy something as a base platform to start with and make it into something with some bolt ons and tuning... as always, Just my $.02
