The original question was not asking for 1/4 mile times and speeds.

Kind of an odd question, really.

Actually Brock Yates documented top end running on the Detroit Freeways back in a R & T or C & d piece in around 66 or 67. From the old Cars mags I beleive top end was done around New York, Motion Cars were not made to compete in set drag classes but to run the street. Hence the question. Answer is if it happened no-one here knows or is not sharing.

The comparision came from my car which had its driveline based on a Motion car when things like Hone'e were available.
These cars had aerodynamics like bricks, so math formulas are meaningless.
Ever stuck your arm out the window at 130mph (and gone back to pick it up )
As I said top end running was done, it usually does not look as dangerous as it is when you are travelling straight and you're behind the wheel.

I dug up a test done by Speed&Supercar '68---I did hear of one that went 11.2/11.3-, but conditions were right---I posted the test in 3 parts, so you could be able to read it---Hope it helps-----------

It looks like the top speed was in the 1/4 mile, not how fast the car would go all out.
Like I posted before, my friends Phase III 'Vette could break 200 ... </font>

Those stats look awfully comparable to me. Am I missing something?

[Motion Camaro]

<font color="blue">Sorry, They are about the same.
My mistake.
How about this original Baldwin one ... </font>
