I know of this mystery engine. That one would certainly be well over 1000 HP I am sure.

I do not think a man could eat that much pie!

Have you seen him eat? It's crazy. He's like a whirling dervish at the table and stand back at the all you can eat diners. It's everyman for himself. He's a freak I'm told...

Ohio is a bit of a drive. Sounds like some fun track time though. August is a bit of a ways away. I predict I'll be making up to 600hp by then.
Tool needs to raise the bar.

Yeah - and one hell of a boring one too...
Need to have one of these gatherings somewhere more centralized.

I don't think anyone with a 2.5l is going to get anywhere close to 600whp on pump gasoline alone...
Tools 602whp run was with a lot of xylene mixed in...

well he said he won the shootout on pump gas but he didn't say how many chickens he lay down in that run .
I think its disappointing that people arn't as impressed as me with the pump gas numbers or with the epic HP V total spend numbers that Sid turns out .
and the other numbers i want to see are whp V time V money.
like I think 350+whp done for a couple of grand and hanging together for a year or 2 is somthing to brag about.

Yep - got that one down.

Sid would definitely win the hp vs $.

Maybe this is the year to make the trip to Ohio....
