The question I have about those times is: was that 1/4 mile done on the dry lake bed, or on asphalt? I doubt they could get 4.1 and 4.4 0-60 on dirt, so I am guessing it was done on asphalt.
Given the amount of 1/4 mile racing these two cars have done in their heritage, I think I would have liked to see them elaborate a bit on how the cars did in the 1/4 (even though I am not a 1/4 mile kind of guy). They kind of just glossed over that part.
