<VV> RE: [fastvair] Representative times ot 60 mph back in the 60s?

[Chris Wills]

I remember that 6 secs was considered good, and typical for 396 Chevelles, 
Camaros etc.  There was one test of a 421 CID Pontiac Catalina which showed 
4.2 secs (or something in the 4's)  which is widely believed to have been a 
ringer supplied by Pontiac, and not representitive of most 421 Catalinas...
