i guess the point is, there's nothing wrong with making our power up top. as seen, that's what some fast ass cars do.

I watched this video earlier...I am just now comenting...That is an awesome comparison...I knew the f1 cars are incredibly fast, but only when you put it up against another "street" car that is very fast can you get a true perspective....That's awesome

haha yeah ok. F1 cars do 0-100 in about 3.5 seconds. and then they top out somewhere around 230mph. and then corner at up to 4 G's.


i'd like to see your dad's pinto do that.

I felt the same way. I always wondered how they would do against one of the faster "street" cars out there. And then just to ice the cake, they throw turns in at the end. lol
