You say no hero runs, and then you talk about the 392 going low 12's. Where are these low 12 runs? In the past, it has been nowhere near low 12's.

Edmunds: 0-60 in 4.5, 12.6 1/4mile at 112.1mph, 4257lbs
BRAVO!

Research = Knowledge = Truth

There's so much BS/prejudice out there, I had to leave a bunch of forums/car clubs (chevy & ford). After 36 years of owning/racing performance cars, I can spot lies in a nano second. It gets tiring trying to correct people all the time, battling self centered pride in lieu of facts ...

"Fox bodies are"
"F bodies can"
"My 440 ran"
"My GT turned"
"My SS did"
"I'm totally stock"
(the worst by far ... hahaha)

Blah, blah, blah. Talk anything of importance these days, and common sense, logic, and facts seem to be the first thing tossed out the window.
