Back in the late eighties Road and Track did a top speed comparison between the mighty Porsche 917 LeMans car and a good ol' boys Winston Cup car. They let both teams do what they could with adjustments and duct tape. If I remember right the twin turbo Porsche almost touched 220 mph. The Buick Regal bodied Cup car with the non-turboed 355 small block? 240 mph! I'd like to see that done again with the new bodies and the extra 200 hp they're getting now!
