Same engineers who used slide rules put a man on the moon and develop the SR71 which still hold most records for fastest airplane. Fast forward 50 years and they can't use all of todays computers to work out the bugs on the F35 to save their lives.
If the muscle cars of the 60's & 70's had the tire technology we have today there would be much much lower #'s for 0-60 and 1/4 mile times in the record books
