What, exactly, does that mean, in "real" terms?

it simply means the time was apparently run on an NHRA-certified track. ONLY! Which means the clocks were exactly 1320' apart. That's ALL it means. It is NOT a statement of what the vehicle did/did not contain. It is NOT a statement of the car being "stock". It is NOT a statement that it ONLY had 707 hp (maybe the belt was disconnected and it was making 800+, as accurately reported).

Strip was 1320' to the clocks, with an NHRA sanction. THAT'S IT.

The rest is, like 6-speed times and other Automatics clicking off sub-11.70s, purely a guess.

Why the continued embargo? Answer me THAT.
