Vevapower Waiting for the 1st N/A 12! Donating Members 2,533 Member For: 17y 2m 25d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 13/05/12 07:59 AM Share Posted 13/05/12 07:59 AM (edited) All 1/4 times times should be done on the at the drag strip, period! These mag nuf nufs are only to happy to record on a drag strip at a hot tuner challenge but not for other stock car comparions! Please give me strenght!It's like if they were asked to to economy runs on a 40 degree day with 4 passenger and had the Air con on full!These car mag spawns are on the take! And sometimes I agree that due to the bigger investment from the chevy camp (sorry GM camp) they just settle for some private/sh*te road for there sprint tests!How about we all try and win letter of the month next month and ask them to do it again but at the strip and hell I'll even voluteer to peddle them!nuff said!

Kind of like comparing dyno numbers from different tuners, or the same tuner on different days, or even "proper" quarter mile times from different strips and/or different conditions.It's all relative. I'm not really sure what you guys would expect of the magazines. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80143-motor-magazine-comparision-test-g6et-vs-bmw-335i-lexus/page/2/#findComment-1236556 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GM must have paid the mag to play down the numbers. It's the only logical conclusion! 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80143-motor-magazine-comparision-test-g6et-vs-bmw-335i-lexus/page/2/#findComment-1236562 Share on other sites More sharing options...
