yeah, 0-60 don't mean a whole lot unless you're selling car magazines. even the 911's of the time don't really measure up by modern 'car&driver' standards.

BUT, my warmed up 2056 (carbs/cam) in a semi-stripped car (app. 2100 lbs with me in it) will hang with a 911SC up to about 50 or 60mph, after which they start to pull me. 2nd gear with my foot all in it, and my wheels had better be pointed straight, or we're going for a spin. i can pull most ricers now, but any new sports car will simply embarass me.

that's okay. it's all about corner exit speed, anyway.
