i know what you mean about the ricers in the city thinking that an oldsmobile is slow... there is one advantage to driving an oldsmobile if you really wanna beat them in a race though..... most rice burners have an automatic shut off between 105 and 125mph and i have had my stock 87cutlass supreme 307 up to 135....

and oddly enough when they finally catch up after you wait on the shoulder of the interstate two miles up, they arent nearly as cocky

oh ya and my dad's 88 cutlass supreme had an overdrive and a mild 350 he got to 145 before the belt running the water pump snapped and we screwed the heads, we ended up coasting the last mile and a half to the drag strip and drove it the 25 miles home ticking, 2 hours later
