Well, I guess you owe us to tell us what you have in there. Because that is not in the same universe as stock, we can't be talking minor mods here. For starters, is this a PI car? (incidently, low 6s

I believe it. The average Corvette, Trans AM, & Camaro drivers in the '70's & early '80's had reaction times slower than turtles, & just about as much brains. Most spent THREE seconds just spinning

One recent study supported this view--specifically regarding cars equipped with ABS braking systems. NHTSA did an accident study of more or less recently produced cars, and discovered that the accide

My TR-6 isn't the fastest car, or even the fastest TR-6 on the road. On paper, I agree, a late model 5.0 V-8 should kick my tail. Now, do the math, a TR-6 is a lot lighter than the Detroit iron I men
