Just think about how slow your car was when it was stock. Now imagine I traded a 350 powered 87 iroc for a 86LX because I was tired of getting clobbered by the 5.0s when I raced back in the day. The 80's were not a good time to be a car guy!

I've never actually raced but according to my dyno numbers. I should run 8s on street tires.

For performance it was lacking (unless you went with a european car) but some of the nicest looking cars came out of the 80's

Holy **** that sucks. The stock fox is down right embarassing, I can't imagine things actually being slower.
