fast is fast - and Usain Bolt would CRUSH the bejeezuz out of Carl Lewis and Ben Johnson in a straight up race....
I think it would be much closer that you would expect, Ben Johnson IMO was THE sprinting specimen, who knows where he could have been in today's world?

Carl Lewis was a MUCH better sprinting specimen than Tyson Gay ever was (longer stride, taller, etc), and guess what? 5'10 Tyson Gay has managed to mop the floor with Usain Bolt.

GAY-BOLT-JOHNSON would love to see that lineup

Gay does look like he is juiced in that video, Bolt is still sleeping
