They don't list the conditions or vehicle weight for their testing, but it is interesting to see that they achieved simmilar ET with much higher MPH (94.4 for 14.9 vs our 91.11 for 14.9)

In cooler weather without a headwind I can see the full weight car doing a 14.7 @ 94 mph if driven well. I also see a 14.5 @ 95 mph with some minor weight reduction in the same cooler "ideal" conditions.
