Nobody said everyone can run it. I've published what I've seen and and some sites to back it up. Sorry that you can't except reality. Audios.

Claims that aren't substantiated? Which ones are you referring to? LS1 f-bodies run low 13's stock (13.1-13.5 avg.) with a good driver. Fact. Plenty of evidence to provide if you do not believe that. VR4's run mid/high 13's (13.7-13.9 avg.) stock with a good driver. Fact. Getting a VR4 to run a mid 13 is like getting a LS1 f-body to run a high 12 sec. quarter mile. It can be done, it has been done, but it is difficult. Good short times only make up for so much in the 1/4th. The car also has to have to power to back it up as well. AWD causes substantial drivetrain loss to go along with it's advantage of good 60' times. It also weighs more.
For this comparison we are talking averages for these cars. Not what a freak bolt on VR4 can run.
Simple way of seeing who is fastest:
Supra traps at 101-102 in the 1/4th.
VR4 traps at 100-102 in the 1/4th.
RX7 TT traps at 99-101 in the 1/4th
All three cars are close in the 1/4th. The VR4 has a slight advantage over the other two with it's AWD and slightly more hp. Go past a quarter mile, and the opposite happens. Supra's have good topend, while VR4's do not. The Rx7 is of course, in there somewhere between the VR4 and the Supra.
