Big Block factory cars running very high 13’s low 14’s is just stoooopid.

I’m glad Fuel Injection was devoloped 🍺 :bowdown:  
although the 50’s something vette had F.I.

The muscle cars looked badass, NO DOUBT!!! ( when i was a kid ) born 1981 😃 now i think yahhhh, but not thrilled 😃

to each his own: not direspecting anyone, But times have changed for me:tounge:

grew up in the 80’s when one of the fastest production cars was a breadbox glh…aside from that we always had camaros around but man, any year you could get a 4cyl in a mustang/camaro :rolleyes:

technology doesn’t always make horsepower, bigger is still better (turbos) in my world.

turbos : the most over used name of the 80’s 😃  
Seriously, I thought it was just a Hot wheels Brand of car:D

even in todays standard, The name turbo comes from anything

" mach 3 Turbo " ( razors ) Turbo is just a name played out: once again, Not direspecting anyone…
