Way to go, Jack. It just amazes me how hard it is to kill this. R/T has
ALWAYS meant Road and Track for the Dodge division ( even if there was a
magazine(OHMIGOD!!) with that name).
R/T stood for Rapid Transit for the Plymouth division in the late
sixties.
Thanks for posting the definitive answer. Maybe we should include this
on the sign-up sheet for the DML.
