TRAINS
CLEAN
(75+6+3+3)*10=870
SCAMPS
FREEMAN
(7-2)*50-8=242
x BOISTER then STROBED just after
(9-7)*100+25-5=220
x wasted time on -ING

STRAND
UNCLEAN
(75+6+3+3)*10=870
CAMPS (Only 1 S I thought)
MERE
(3+2)*50-8=242
BRIDGES
25-(8-7)=24, (24*5)+100=220
3.7 Secs

Yes, only one S in round 4, so your answer there is invalid, Mike. Also, there's no A for round 5 -- typo, or error? FREEMEN is an excellent spot.

And welcome, Phil! Always good to have more players.

1. DISTRAIT (also DISTRAIN; alas, did not think of DISTRAINT)
2. UNCLEAN
3. 870 = 10*(75 + 6 + 3 + 3)
4. ESCAPE
5. FREEMEN
6. 242 = (7 - 2)*50 - 8
7. STODGIER
8. 220 = 9*25 - 5
9. [N/A -- chosen, but the answer is CONFIGURE]

Thanks for the feedback. Yes I meant an E for 5 and must have been half asleep for round 4! Welcome Phil. Wish I had added the UN to CLEAN!
