Well kind of...
While they had it they decided that they would send a few of their intrepid reviewers out with a grand and a half in their sweaty mitts to buy some 'obsolete' road legal weapons.
The plan: To run these as purchased, unmodified superbikes of yesterday against one of the current best.
The contendors: 1990 CBR1000f, 1993 YFZ750R and a 1996 ZX-7R
The Challange: To get these ancient warriors within 5 seconds a lap of the Gixxers time
As Mike said, its a good example that even a 1993 superbike isn't slow or good for a new rider.
