Pretty much. When some kid can go grab his mom's Camry V6 and run a very low 14 or high 13, I realized drag racing's standards were changing.

And then you realized, it was slow as piss, when some guy can get some piece of **** 4th Gen Auto F-body, throw an intake/exhaust/stall on it and decent drag radials, and hey - welcome to mid-11's! Faster than BOTH of the car's we're discussing for a fraction of the price and half the horsepower.
'Nuff said.
