  • Studebaker 'Racing Trivia' Question #190

    With all the discussion about racing lately,.....What would the 'average' 1/4 mile e.t. and trap speed be for a new '55 President Hardtop with auto trans., (259CI 4bbl), and 3.54 rear?

    About 18.1 if the driver can shift it. 17.1 with a standard trans and ME driving. thats about 79-80 MPH
