Thats why some of the fastest cars on the street right now are the twin turbo vipers putting out 1200-1500whp on a pretty conservative tune. That engine may not be that advanced or efficient but when you have 500+ci to play with its hard not to make big HP

Thats a fast FWD import and I'm a domestic fan... but its still true that if you want to go REALLY fast in a straight line, RWD, a Solid Axle, an auto tranny, and big cubes and/or FI is the way to do it.


That 522ci Nelson racing engine is a good example of what can be done. Its basically a low 8 second car they drive around on the street like any other car.. now thats the sort of machine I dont want to be racing on the street for 2k a race, and they are out there so be careful. Even a civic trapping 150+ or a 1200whp supra isnt going to be nearly enough.

some fast honda/acura
