Joe,
Thanks for joining up and voting for me when you get the ballot.
There is a ByLaw Change to vote on also. When you get the ballot,
I'll give you my opinion......
From my info, the standing 1/4 in a 500E is 14.1 seconds and 101
mph...... Under ideal conditions, I presume..... 0-60 is 5.5
secs....... Since trans normally starts in 2nd, start in low gear,
pedal to the metal, trans goes into 1st, then shift to D upon
liftoff........
I'll let you know after StarFest.........
Chuck
PS....... Andrew..
I'm not a centenarian (used the dictionary to get it right) YET!
But, will be trying for the Century Club at StarFest!!! Not quite
like the "mile high club".... ::>) ..

"Is that for age or mileage?
Or is there a special club for centurarians (?) who drive 100 mph
on the
track?"

Not quite, Andrew. My understanding is that kind of a holy grail
for more
or less stock 500E owners is to break 100 at the drag strip in the
standing
1/4mi.
