My stock Elky 305 is closer to 18 seconds for the 1/4.

I guess I never got into street racing because I never had a fast car. My 1st car was a 1960 VW Bug. Ground pounding 36 HP. When I moved up to a 73 Super Bug I felt fast with 60 HP. After that was a 74 914 2.0 with a whopping 95 HP. I bought my Carrera in 1995 and it is kinda fast but many of the modern pickups and minivans are way faster. I have had the Elky since 1991. Sometimes a ricer will pull up and just beg for a race. They are assuming I have a hot 350 under the hood. I just ignore them.

I get my go fast thrills on the autocross course and the occasional DE.
