there is a limit on what STREET LEGAL cars can have... anything STREET legal has to be under 400hp why do you think the charger, challenger mustang and the camaro are all 387 and under! dumb s**t
Idiot of the day goes to XMS NOOB 928 Shifty.

Find me the US law that states for a vehicle to be street legal it has to be under 400 hp. Besides ignoring the muscle car era where high-compression V8s with more liters than coke bottles in a fridge were commonly trying to plant 300-500 hp through bias-ply tires...

How come the Shelby GT500 is a 500+ HP car? What about the 505 HP Z06, or the 650 HP ZR1? What about the 550 HP Cadillac CTS V, or the 420 HP Camaro SS? What about the 640 hp LP640? The 600 hp Zonda? ****, the 1001 HP Veyron? The 420hp SRT8s? 500 hp Benz's. The 435 G8 GXP. The near 400 HP Evo 10 (in it's wildest trim). 600-700 HP Bently?

These are all factory cars with over 500 hp. There is no limit on horse power in the US. This is not the UK where custom built cars have to be approved by the transit authority. The US is the home of the "door slammers" class in drag racing where a car can have as much power as it wants as long as it can plant it on a certain size tire and still be able to pass inspection. NRE is a common producer of streetable 2000 hp twin turbo V8 classics. Not to mention the array of street legal Supras with 4 digit horse power numbers.

Before your fresh noob *** opens your mouth, go get your facts straight, mkay.



And none of this cop-out 'lets agree to disagree', as there are facts and ignorant lies. The latter needing to be debated.
