 My only point was that IF the current crop of FEs really make the power numbers that are being posted, these 2500-2800 pound cars should show quarter mile trap speeds in the mid-130s. The LS6 427 Corvettes do while weighing over 3500 pounds with driver.

 My Keith Craft 427 / 527  has run:
10.23 @ 132
10.43 @ 139
10.87 @ 131

You did have it right when you said... Those people running 10 sec 130 mph Vettes, Vipers and Cobras set out to do just that! 
 
I know that was true for me.

 True for me also.   You don't get "fast" inexpensively or by accident and it usually requires some cash to keep going fast.
