0.5s in a quarter mile in the 11s range isn't a small change. It's not the same as going from 13.5 to 13.0. As others have stated, you also have to look at the trap speed.. that's a better indicator of the power it's making.

Same with 0-60. Cutting off 0.4s from 0-60 in a 3s window isn't as easy as you'd think on a heavier RWD platform. Especially on street tires.
