People who don't know their stuff...
I found this link of stats on the FD, can anyone else tell me what's wrong with the 0-100 and 1/4 mile times here?
http://www.fast-autos.net/mazda/rx7info.html
How can a car go 0-100 in 12.9 seconds, BUT only do the 1/4 mile in 14 seconds @99mph?!? W/out slowing down that is or really messing up a shift???
Just something I thought was funny.

The curb weight, horsepower, and gas mileage is wrong too. I wonder where they get their info?
