And the way that it builds power.
Very true, because in normal street driving (anything below/around 3000rpm) It feels mostly stock. It's when you get up past 3000rpm at WOT that it starts to pull stronger as it reaches redline. Not like a turbo where you guys can reach your peak power down low in the rpm band and hold it untill redline.

Yea, but in 1/8th mile. I just thought the times would vary a little more in the 1/4 mile. I havent raced 1/4 yet only 1/8th. Dunno just thought it was funny...

Naw, that was MikeScion's car back when he was N/A too. We are in the Second race though. In the left hand lane. Don't know if anyone noticed how merky the sky seemed. That's because a Tornado had came through the day before. The track was not in the best of conditions, and was semi wet.
