AMX or Javelin tested stopping distances?

At the time, no other magazine tested handling and braking as thoroughly as SCG did.  Because essentially no one else tested either.  SCG did skidpad G measurements, stopping distance...  in the 1960s. Both the Boss 302 and Z28 stopped better than AMX or Javelin- better brakes and bigger tires. SCG on the vega: There are so many innovations made merely to reduce the number of pieces and improve reparability.  that it can't possibly work"  :)

I still have most of those Sports Car Graphic magazines including the AMX one. Seems like it ran a 15.0 quarter mile. I think that SCG had the lift or downforce posted on each end of the car also. I also have the Motor Trend with the 70 AMX and better braking numbers. I'm just saying what the magazine said. I know that my AMX always locked up rear brakes and didn't stop terribly fast or straight, and it has disc brakes.

The T/A Camaro test results are interesting, but it would be more interesting to compare them to a T/A Javelin for a true apples-to-apples comparison. 

Yes.
