Dont underestimate the fun of breaking the rears through 3rd and 4th.

I think Mr.fast951 is right!
Having all the power in the world, wouldn't make your car any quicker if you can't put it to the ground.

Weston - I was leaving a ZO6 about 50 yards behind me down the little straight at Limerock. Then I would ease up to the bridge evrytime just to burn his *** again.

Ask John about the Ferrari CHALLENGE car that he slapping around at RA.....

Got toque??

HP/TQ are fun, but to pull a fast lap time it takes much more than power. The most important ingredient is the "DRIVER", suspension, brakes,....
Peak numbers are not as important as the area under the curve, and the flexibility/response of the turbo.
A bit OT I know!
