It seems to have gone all quiet here, does this mean that you don't wanna see what your cars compare like to these modern hi po machines??

What? This? This is just a thread on a message board initiated by someone who readily admits that his own car is not yet complete. It hardly qualifies as "throwing down the gauntlet".
What bugs me is that people assume that if it ain't published on a message board or printed in a magazine, then it's not happening. Most of the guys I know who
are tracking their cars will not wear out their keyboards to flaunt the event(s). In the past, when they do post results, the bench racers flood in and criticize the effort in true armchair quarterback fashion.
You would be astonished at the number of message board members who are getting seat time. I can rattle off at least a dozen names without giving it any thought. And after typing this I will curl up with the latest issue of Car Craft. It reminds me that the last three winners of Real Street Eliminator have all been well known pro-touring enthusiasts.
