How do you make sense out of that? Of course this is something Chrysler should yell at the top of their advertising power.

This is the supreme record for street cars, Publicity stunts are for politicians. Ring times are a measure of world acclaim respect .

Running that time at the Ring is anything but a publicity stunt. As much as I have hated Chrysler lately, they did it right with this. They built a car for racing purists, and they did a damn good job. That time wasn't given, it was earned. I would love to see an explanation as to how that would be just a publicity stunt, when they just tore apart the competition that had all but forgotten them.
