Not Ranked
Evan:
An official time is done with a fifth wheel. The 13.8 sec. time has been disputed for many years. If you look at the time that cars do it in today, and take into consideration the tires they had in the 60's, it is very doubtful.
If Miles did it, how was it timed, and who did the test? SAI?
I would believe it if Road and Track, or Car and Driver (I think they were around back then) did the test themselves. Show me one of these, and I would call that official.
