142km is 88mph
Depending on setup I'd guess around 16.0 1/4 mile

Sounding alot like a street race to me.

A post on a public forum about street racing would make very interesting evidence in court.

That site above is good, though if you know your quarter mile speed, the time can be calculated(according to their formulas which have a good basis) without having to know the mass.
Ive put this into a graph so you can see quickly the speeds req for particular times.

or if you like an alternative to the graph is to use the formulas:

Time(s) = 2181/speed(kmh)

or

Speed = 2181/time
