    Default Alberta's Fastest Street Car Shootout - Pics

    They had to drive around the track for 10 minutes to be called "street cars".

    The blue mustang did low 8's, the Daytona did 12.11, and the RX-8 did 17.#.

    I think I'm deaf now.

    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

    Yep. A couple passes on a car that probably doesn't even have the motor broken in yet with a driver of unknown skill is totally indicative of a new vehicles straight line performance

    It should be doing 14.5-14.7 at sea level.
