horsepower war getting out of control...

It will cool off just like it did back in the early 70's. Then we will be stuck with craptastic underpowered UAW cars again. Can't Wait!
 
Sonufab!tch!!

S 69?

Just when we though 65 was big.

Although that 69 will get a bit of ridicule maybe..

I still love it back in the first age of muscle cars. It was about afforable power, and being able to upgrade on the cheap (like OCing an AMD processor). These cars don't seem to be that.
 
I might agree with you just a little if this were on a car that cost $20k but that car is going to cost well in excess of $100,000.

The chances of your average teen getting behind the wheel of one of these will be about nil.

My car is like that. Just as with overclocking an AMD processor, I turned up the boost on my car. With an NA car it's hard to do, but with forced induction it's easy. Boost= power.

I wish my AMD processor had boost.

I am only 17.. but I got my hands on an old muscle truck. I have spent a total of ~1 twelve pack of beer for the intake manifold, ~30 dollars for a carb and parts to rebuild it, ~400 dollars for the truck, and a few bucks so my dad would buy me the pack of beer. It is mad fun driving a powerful 4 on the floor.
