hahaha random ,i think those cars push like 430 hp or something but you have to consider the weight to power ratio. If your car pushs close to the same you will win.

you guys are total ---- heads, they don't handle that bad.

what makes you think that because something is big it can't handle? i mean seriously whats the major ------- difference between the suspension on a honda and on some other domestic car. NOTHING. they all use the same type of suspension. christ that ---- really annoys me.

5.4l SOHC SEFI v8

maybe if it was a pushrod it'd get better
so much for OHC always meaning rev high right?

WTF are you talking about? Every company does drastically different things to their suspensions! Lots of cheaper cars use McPherson struts, which don't handle very well, but most Hondas on the road use double wishbone suspension, which is why it's not very difficult to make them handle well. My point is that there are MAJOR DIFFERENCES between different cars and suspension setups.
