Anybody can post anything they want on this board with little or no verification. The validity of comments from "joe racer," or even moreso, from people like ME (who don't race a Class car) mean very little, because you never know where that information originated.

But, when the guy who actually drove the winning Cobra Jet says it, it takes on a whole new meaning.

John Calvert is not someone who throws around numbers (especially, in a case like this) without having the ability to back them up.

THAT's the difference; hearsay vs. what is very likely, factual information, (based on its source.)

.Now, I'm convinced.
