I can relate to this statement sooo much. It has so much truth in it. I know so many people though work (Acura Master Tech) that tell me I don't know what fast is. Because their jacked up muscle cars were soooo fast. Meanwhile, they never really went to the track or dyno. They just remember them being fast, but with no proof. So they just think they had a 10 second car.
Those hot rod tv shows don't help the situation at all. Where these old timers watch a crate 350 with bolt-ons make 500whp on pump gas. Or the engine builders that make "2000hp" on pump gas with a boosted 527. These muscle car guys are worse at fudging numbers than some Evo shops. lol
So I agree. You just said it much better than I ever have. /rant

Haha! I work at a small local bar and "those guys" are in all the time... When they start up, I just whip out a December Dsport magazine I have stashed with the feature of ricer...
