not top speed just 0-60

someone somewhere complained about the leisure pace of a flat out accerating 240d. well i am here to dispel those rumors.

today i took three runs with a handheld digital stopwatch. you haveta realize that there is a big wind from the southwest in place.

first run heading west. 0-60 in .......21.8 seconds in .3/mile
2nd run heading north 23.6 same as above
3rd run heading north 25.8 also the same

now i don't know anyone who judges a 240 in 0-60 since the world we live in in ususlly 0-35 or less in traffic.

hey was that a 240td perchance??? one of 4400 made during the years 77-83?
