It returns back to 1100 RPM, not 11 RPM. Just a little typo.

OK! OK! I admit it I am a lurker. Just a car nut here. The DeLorean came out
when I was a kid (11) and I followed JohnZ's story. I work one block from a
"Classic" (I use the term loosely here) used car dealer which features a
DMC-12 once in a while. I always stop and take a look.
By the way, anybody like Alfas here? (please don't direct me to the Alfa
Digest I already belong). No I won't talk about them here either, unless
someone wants too...
Oh yeah, I like Bricklins too. You must admit that Malcolm has had more
interesting stories to tell than John Z. :-)

Subject: Clock and Rain Storms
Well, I drove my DeLorean for the first time in a rain storm and, of
course, something weird happened. My clock has always kept the correct
time, until last night. I met friends at a restaurant. We sat and ate for
about two hours and I came back out to my DeLorean and saw that the clock
had advanced itself about four hours past the correct time from 8:xx to
12:14.
It was a thunder storm complete with lightning and all, but I really doubt
the car was struck by a stray ray of a bolt of lightning. Any other ideas
out there, or similar experiences?

My front suspension is creaking whenever I go over a bump. Any
suggestions?
