Yea I found out the rest of the story after a talk with the police chief. The
cop was being nice as the kid actually got pulled over for doing 60 in a 30.
Cop wrote it up that way so kid would not have car impounded and lose license.
Cop also had to follow kid for a mile or 2 before he stopped,
Figures. I'll stop by when I'm down in AR around New Years for you to
sign the title over to me.

Window up, stereo blasting, engine roaring? Yeah you might not hear it

What would you guess the 0-60 time would be for a 84 190D 2.2 auto? Kid
got a ticket today for accelerating too fast getting onto the highway.
Didnt even know that would be illegal. Not for not stopping at the stop

Heehee.
This sounds about right. (for a new car, not an Okie special)
I say take the car to that freeway ramp with a video camera and floor it up the
ramp with the camera pointed at the gauges.
1984-1985 190D 2.2
Yeah, that is what they use to nail kids laying rubber and engaging in
speed contests. The cop wanted to nail the kid, figured the diesel
smoke was tire smoke, and tried to make a little money for the town or
county or whatever. Maybe you should take the car there and have the
cop test it,

Cool. If you demand a formal hearing, he'll just make something up and you'll be
totally unprepared for whatever he says. Your fault for
Somewhat justifiable bad view, as not exactly a fast accelerating vehicle.
