Yes I know that one. I think I included that in the original thread "How much power is enough" take #1
It makes me think, yes, I like that. That's 'adequate'....but then that's on a track. That's professional drivers with different levels of car control to most of the rest of us.
To balance it, I like Lynn Park's words also ...."The stock Cobra, the way it was built, is just the most fun car to drive on the street in the whole wide world"
No doubt some of us have different ideas of what "fun" is
