The real problem we have is the Camaro has gained over 1,000lbs since then.
The 60's muscle car era was full of 15-14 second cars with a few 13 and 12 second cars in the mix but rare.

We look back at cars back then in wonder, but we have to remember the cars

seemed a lot faster than they were, in part due to all that beautiful noise, and also because they were difficult to control.
