Actual races between two cars are the only real way to measure performance. A car that has a best time of 13.0@106 can easily beat a car that ran a 12.7@110. How so? Because internet times mean nothing. Times can vary by the better part of a full second depending on track elevation, track prep and DA. Someone's 12.5 might be a 12.0 if ran at the same track and same time as someone else's best run.
Going on about what an average car does or what certain cars "should" do with this mod or this mod is pointless.

We know he wasn't.
No. The Mach 1 is considerably quicker.
It's very easy to find cars that ran at the same track in similar conditions. Once you see several of those, it is also easy to guesstimate how two cars potentially compare. Street races only determine how you did against that particular person.

lol my fire suit has been on for days man lol.
i just think its funny how much of this "my car is faster then your car" and all this.. lol. i ran a 4 cylinder down a track(its my old car) and i posted a slip.. how hard is it for anyone to do?... i know" they dont throw those slips away. i have a shoe box filled packed tight with all of my cars i ever raced... even my 99 VW passat lol.
if you think your car is faster. then run a time. calculate DA, and post Track Temp. then have him do the same. compare timeslips side by side, and adjust for track conditions etc. trap speeds dont usually lie
