Re: [DML] Jim Varney's "D"

Mark,
Jim Varney's Delorean was NOT turbo. I know as I looked over the motor before 
it was sold. It was stock, even down to the plastic overflow bottle. By the 
way it was an automatic! Where the 140mph came from is that the Delorean was 
rated full out at between 130 and 140 mph. They took it out and ran it full 
bore, then told people that it had to have ran "about" 140. As I posted 
before the current owner (at last count is a member of the DML list. If he 
wants he can confirm my above statements. Also Ken K. had a look at the car, 
(he also posted a few days ago), Ken am I wrong on this one? Mark, this was 
not to flame your posting, just to put away those urban legends that come up 
and over time people think are fact.
