Greg,

Thanks for the "real world" account of the car's capability. I found a Marauder site that had time slips posted and all were 10.63 to 12.29 and ALL were supercharged and some even had nitrous added. I believe that the SC's were aftermarket and never a standard option. I did go a Mercury convention and I do have photos of ONE and only ONE Marauder convertible, 2 door that was supercharged. Beautiful car and I did beg the Mercury brass to please produce the car as a 2 door coupe and they promised to look at it, see where that got me.

Anyway I do think that a Stock class Marauder could easily give the power adders a run and be very competitive.
