Default What about 400rwhp looks like on the speedo
I had a full tank of gas, hatch loaded with lawn fertilizer and launched real easily to avoid getting sideways while holding the wheel with 1 hand! Nevertheless, you can get a sense of the acceleration. I dont think I reached WOT until the 1-2 shift.

I'd like to see a 300mph speedo vid of a NHRA top-fuel dragster!

I believe they hit 100mph in just over 1 sec. Thats just mind boggling!
