March 12, 200818 yr Author Man!!! I knew they were slow but....21 seconds in the 1/4 mile ?? My 78 VW beetle would beat that pulling an airstream trailer !! 60' Time ........................ 002.593 sec0 to 60 MPH ..................... 000.000 sec 1/8 Mile ET ..................... 011.385 sec 1/8 Mile Speed .................. 053.241 mph 1000' Time ...................... 016.129 sec 1/4 Mile ET ..................... 021.050 sec 1/4 Mile Speed .................. 044.739 mph It's not street racing if no one else is there and you're staying close to the speed limit, which was 50. I let off when I got up to 50. So that explains the 44mph trap speed. I highlighted the important parts for you. I'm not doing a 1/4 mile run with 2 tickets already on my lisence. The transfer clutches were having the torque bind issue when we bought the car, so slipping them a bit should help "burnish" them. I'm more worried about the tires than the transfer clutches. They're wet clutches, and without pressure on them, the wear is minimal.
