So much for the "Class is over back to work guy" Guess we all learn something every day right?
Two more things to consider.
1. I'm sure most of these "Tests" that are conducted that give forum and bench racers ammo for their arguments use professional track drivers to get these numbers. Most of us (and most "ricers") may not be able to post times like that.
2. The guy in the OP's post was being a douche by tailgating him. Doesn't matter what he was driving.
*edit* I want to see R/T or any of these car magazines do an "average joe" Lap test. Put a regular guy off the street in some of these cars and to a test. Compare it with professional drivers times. It wouldn't prove much about cars, but I think it would still be entertaining.
