what on earth is a 13 second car? That sounds like it would rust away even faster than an Alfasud

'64
13 seconds?
Isn't that rather slow for a 1/4 mile time?
Without checking, I think the slowest car on sale in the UK; the Fiat Panda 4x4 does it in 20 something seconds.
I can't remember how fast, but I think that evo managed to get that down significantly by strapping it to the back of a G55 - maybe that's the answer.
Thanks for all the fish

You serios CS ?
13 seconds is about the best you can get out of a street FWD.
A well tuned road going AWD/RWD will get low 12s.
Pretty much any bike will do 11s
Well outside of a special "sticky" track.
