I'm assisting my girlfriend in attempting to beat a speeding ticket which she got while motoring in her '83 245...in the category of creative defenses, I am trying to get actual data on what the car's top speed is/was; she was (supposedly) clocked at over 90. Though it might be sacrilege to suggest it, I'm wondering whether this awesome feat of speed was/is even possible for the Blue Bomber....
