    On a similar note - there are vid's on youtube showing the 1972 datsun "White Zombie" smashing its own world record for street legal 1/ 4 mile times. It's down to an amazing smog-less 10.2 seconds. How many street legal rides can do THAT ... and still not self destruct from their own high compression?
