How do you know they are fast if the mag dont time them anymore

.
Its easy to quote silly horsepower figures & my cars mega fast in the old days you would be taken to Brunters & there the bullshit stopped.
Both PF & FF are no longer interested in Performance . Their will be no more Daddy Thrashes to find out what these cars are capable of. Its now inflated horsepower figures with no graphs & no against the clock timing. The 'Fast' & 'Performance' part of these mags are already dead.
The Cossie has had its day you go to shows now & see rows & rows of the modern rs's that will never be worthy of the Cosworth badge its why i no longer attend. Perfectly kept examples like Matts 3dr are still worth a punt but the nonsense thats talked about cars in these mags & then not backed up with facts is a joke. But then the average punter believes the bullshit so i suppose the mags wont change.
