no such thing as too much power.

There are twin turbo vipers making 1000-1400 to the wheels.

Cool vid.

Yeah, I am. Once I finish Law School. I could go ahead and get an older model now, but I seriously don't see that being too practical. I was looking at this one... But as much as I want it, I think I should probably wait.

My boss has a RSI Twin Turboed 510 ci GTS... That thing is amazing. Makes 934 whp at 13 PSI...

I REALLY want this one.

I dont think you want to do those kind of wheelies. They look fun and all, but that car probably has a cracked block after a hit like that. That or you need some serious save your *** bars.

notice he didn't finish the race! I bet that wheelie was expensive. Wheels off the ground + brakes = bad.

"Too" much power?

Nah, just have to be able to use it.

Also, hitting the brakes with the nose at a 50 degree angle is probably a BAD idea.
