  i learned scientific method and statistics while getting a masters. 
  peer review is a good thing. your points are well taken but let me 
  share another perspective: lab specs are great, but what about their 
  cummulative real-world effect? how many more stations will radio A 
  hear over radio B? 

  given brake horsepower and curb weight which car is faster? which 
  spec means more? there is no substitute for real-world quarter-mile 
  times where tire adhesion, engine power band, shifting, aerodynamics, 
  etc. are also taken into account concurrently.

  Not to mention one of the most important factors; the driver's abilities and proficiencies, or lack of, to operate it at its highest efficiency under all the different prevailing circumstances of every moment!
