Remember, after 50+ years of technology you better damn well hope you beat some musclecar. Also as mentioned tires have come a long long way. I'll be willing to bet some of the 60 GM stuff will easily crack 11's with modern rubber and a good driver.
You can talk all you want about modern exotics but back then musclecars were bread and butter affordable. Nowadays, if want to spend 6 figures BUYING something that might catch what some hillbilly built in a garage with a Summit catalog, go for it. It doesn't mean or prove a damn thing- except you had to buy it.
Muscle ain't dead, it just became extremely prohibitive (READ Barrett Jackson, collectors) to get the real stuff.
Muscle is just cooler than a ****ing EV- I don't care if it's 0-60 quicker. Sorry.
