That was most likely the built-in safety guard on the standard model after they saw the movie. Every engine was tuned so that it would never ever come near the 88. That way DeLorean made sure that you would never travel through time by accident, which would have caused lots and lots of insurance cases. Well, there is a reason why the flux capacitors never got available on the regular model, too.Can't argue that. The one I drove was a customer's car and there were no freeways nearby, so I did the best I could. Fastest I got it going was 63 mph on an empty surface street, and if I remember correctly it took nearly half a mile to get it there. So, neither fast nor quick, not particularly comfortable, and a pain-in-the-backside to get into and out of. Oh, yeah, that's the car I want for my daily driver!
