When it comes to perfromance cars these days, the focus has shifted away from the quarter-mile time. Back in the heyday of the muscle car, when models such as the Chevrolet Chevelle SS prowled the streets, quarter-mile times and trap speeds were king when it came to the measurement of a car’s capabilities. Now, though, how quickly a car goes from 0-60 mp is much more favored. But at the same time, cars can now go faster than ever, so quarter mile times are more interesting than ever.
