Wow, 750HP. That's 10x the displacement on my Mustang and only about twice the power, and I have no boost. Can you imagine what we could get out of one that big now?

It is amazing how much power we get out of engines these days thanks to computer controls and better fuel control.

 

[Suprtek]

It has to take some serious balls to drive something that heavy going that fast with tires that skinny and suspension that primitive. I doubt it stops on a dime either. But its still cool as hell.

yeah i was thinking the same thing.

Engine technology has come a long way. My caliber is 272hp and 276tq at the wheels and its a bone stock boosted 2.4l 4 hanger. I'm drawn to brutis because of the mechanics and the absurdity of it. I love the exposed rockers and springs, the chain drive, and the fact if shoots flames better than a ww2 flamethrower.

Damn. I saw "Brutus" and thought this was going to be about that frigging stupid-looking Ohio Sate mascot. I was hoping that he had been caught taking showers with 10-year-old boys.
