Motor Trend tested an '87 RS 2.8 5 speed, and the 0-60 was 10.4 sec, with the 1/4 taking 17.6 @ 82.4 MPH....

Yet there are guys on here who are pulling 16 flats with them...it can be done!!

Looking at my last time slip, i ran 18.4 @71.3 mph. Although my car is geared LOW, in 4th gear i may be pushing 1800-2000 rpms.
