How fast would a ten second car be?

The phrase 'RUN NINES' means to run a quarter mile in less than ten seconds. A TEN-SECOND car is one that 'runs nines'.

They must also be 'American' miles per hr, not U.K. miles per hr; like the u.s. Gallon; Cheaper, but Smaller too.
A sub ten is just achievable with a hi end modern day sports bike and has been for yrs. The terminal V for a 9.9 is 145 mph ish. A good car will do 9.5 secs at 140 ish mph(it accelerates faster off the line due to torque and tyre footprint but loses later to the bikes power/weight ratio)
To achieve 180 miles per hr in 1/4 mile, a car would need to be capable of a mid 7's second 1/4 mile. I doubt even the Veyron can do that and its top speed is 250mph. . ;#}
