Interesting to see them all running around the same times with the crappy tires they had with such a big spread on MPH. The highest average claimed HP doesn't jive with the MPH too.

Yeah, they mostly turn the same ET range and it agrees with what I remember ..The one's faster than the rest were prepped or tuned for the track with slicks and gears...Some were outright frauds like Royal Pontiac GTO's ,H&M prepped Fords and Baldwin Chevys...

It was common when Super Stockers just started up that they would road test a street car and a race car in the same article

http://wildaboutcarsonline.com/members/ ... Dart_413_1
http://wildaboutcarsonline.com/cgi-bin/ ... splayed=50
1962 Dodge Ramcharger 413 (MT)
413ci/410hp, 3spd auto, 3.91, 0-60 - 5.8, 1/4 mile - 14.4 @ 101mph
1962 Dodge Dart 413 (CL)
413ci/385hp, 3spd std, 4.10, 0-60 - 7.4, 1/4 mile - 15.1 @ 92mph
1962 Dodge Dart 413 (CL)
413ci/410hp, 3spd std, 4.56, 0-60 - N/A, 1/4 mile 13.75 @ 106.76 mph

So the Speeds are probably close
The major Ringer stuff was always Pontiac
But the competitors learned also
I owned a '65 396 Vette
the likelihood of the 66 427 L-72 turning a 12.8 on the only offered goldlines 7.75 15 tires with about 5 inches of tread max is ludicrous

The older we get, the faster we wuzz.

The real disappointments in that list are the various L79 327" 350hp Chevy II/Chevelle/Corvettes. I remembered them as being real rocketships in their day, but the reality as stockers they'd hardly get out of their own way.

I was a Studebaker guy, even then and wouldn't choose off with the L79s, but maybe I should have:

1963 Studebaker Avanti (MT)
289ci/280hp, 3spd auto, 3.73, 0-60 - 8.0, 1/4 mile - 15.8 @ 91mph

1963 Studebaker Avanti (HRM)
304.5ci/335hp, 3spd auto, 4.89 13.71 @107.78 mph

1965 Chevelle SS (HPC)
327ci/350hp, 4spd, 3.70, 0-60 - 7.6, 1/4 mile - 16.0 @ 90mph

1966 Chevy II Nova SS (CL)
327ci/350hp, 4spd, 3.31, 0-60 - 7.2, 1/4 mile - 15.1 @ 93mph

1968 Corvette (CD)
327ci/350hp, 4spd, 3.70, 0-60 - 7.1, 1/4 mile - 15.0 @ 92mph

Notice the Stude R2 was 280hp and the R3 at 335hp vs 350hp for the Chevys.

Jack we live in an age where some 5800 pound empty PU trucks can run low 14's with the AC on in totally stock condition..It's all relative, there were fast in a day of shitty two ply tires and drum brakes....I'm amazed so many of us survived those death traps :D

The fact is we all had MUCH more fun with those cars during those years than we do today with a 700 HP mega buck car!

Every night the blvds. would clear out of normal Mom&Pop traffic and all the burger joints and hang outs came alive with the latest Detroit muscle and
the older hot rods like the 55-57 Chevys.
Stoplight encounters along with all out racing in secluded areas, Great gas that was cheap, and Great local drag racing that was just plain FUN on Sunday!

I had a hell of a time back then and now we just cruise to a parking lot for the stand around BS.

Now some will say that with inflation figured in it's the same today and I just say BS.... 5 bucks bought a lot of gas,burgers, and drive-in movie fun!!

For true, but back then there were more open roads and it wasn't necessary to go too fast to have fun. My first 'Vette was a '60 283" and I had way more fun driving it than I had in the most recent models. Those old skinnys would slither and slide in moderate speed corners; one could play road racer anywhere, anytime. Proof of the adage, “Driving a slow car fast is more fun than driving a fast car slow,”

Today's 'Vettes are hyperspace fast, but there's little the driver contributes other than to aim it. If one were ever to get to the limits of cornering traction, it will be going so fast an incident would be fatal to everyone in the vicinity. I spent a half-day looking for opportunities to use all that acceleration and speed, but couldn't find the open spaces and clear sight lines. The occasional one-gear blasts were great fun, but the potential is mostly unusable.

My 1970 Dodge Dart
340ci / 275hp, 4spd std, 3.23 1/4 mile - 14.67 @ 96.56 mph

Only problem is I do not remember if this was bone stock or after I play the carb jetting and air valve.

Well, $5 in 1965 is $40 today. So yeah, you could buy a lot of burgers.

If you want to see the potential to today’s cars in road racing trim, go to a SCCA Majors race and pay attention to the Touring classes (essentially showroom stock with trunk kits). At Road America a Mustang GT with a cage and DOT-R tires are turning faster lap times (by about 4-5 seconds) than the vintage Trans Am cars of the 1960s (and those cars are up 150hp from where they were back in the day, plus better tire compounds). A current front running vintage Trans Am car is about 4 seconds a lap faster than it was in the day. Add another 4 seconds on top of that.
