I can speed shift with the best of them. I wasnt trying on this day, obviously. I was just giving a few guys a "joy ride". Thats all.

Its funny how life is so relative!!! Those guys were sooo giddy to ride in a 460rwhp cobra.... I wonder what they would do if they rode in units car on the bottle? They would probably **** themselves!!!....... but I bet to unit the car is probably starting to feel slow and he's ready to bump it up a couple hundred horses.

I swear when I give people rides in my car they get quiet as hell and just hold on!!! Yet here I am adding more mods so that I can make 750whp or so!!! I'm starting to get used to the power in my car so I figure lets bump it up a couple hundred horses. I'm actually a little scared or what 750whp is going to feel like on the street..... because I'm only gonna be able to use it at 100+!!! Then I'm sure someday that will feel slow!!!! Does it ever end? Do we ever lose this speed thirst? Is it ever enough?

It's all perspective. I remember when I thought my '86 305TPI T/A was fast.

Nah...a little SBF and a 106 is good for 6.90's @ 215mph...at least that's
what my boy runs. A 106 is a little too stout for me I think.
