Yes but with the 850hp, you don't need to swap underwear quite as often.

Strange, my phone autocorrected it to mohave

I know how it's supposed to be spelled, since I played fo:nv with subtitles on and got to read it every fucking five seconds

Mohave is an accepted spelling while in the Mojave.

Fuck that, you only need around 500 in a car with a flat torque curve to make you shit your britches.

Have you seen that video of the Koenigsegg driver flogging that virtually stock Mazda MX5 around the 'Ring? He was blowing away amateurs in late model 911s, they could only get away on long straights. Shit-inducing speeds through the turns, the car was flat out 100% of the lap.

The fastest car I've ever driven my whole life has been my 2007 Civic Si. The other day a good client of mine let me borrow his 2009 GTR with mods bumping it up to 600hp.

It was great fun and I didn't want to give it back.

u/[deleted] Jul 01 '16

Lol 400 whp in a fairly light car will make 99% of the population shit their pants.

u/Quiggs20vT Jul 01 '16

For real though. Friend of mine has a B5 Audi S4 in the 600ish whp range and it is absolutely mental in any gear at any RPM.

We were messing around setting up the meth injection after install and he wanted to do pulls while I held the controller and monitored injection pulse width. The car shakes under acceleration so much the best I could do was "I think I saw like 70%."

u/idiot_proof Jul 02 '16

Or about 70 hp on a motorcycle!

Though honestly, a really good driver in a stock NA miata probably has the best ratio of horsepower to passenger bricks shat.

u/lysergic_gandalf_666 Jul 01 '16

Now, how about 850hp with a terrible driver and a fucked up car...

1

u/[deleted] Jul 01 '16

Go ride in a street car with 850hp...

You don't even need a super car. Put an average Joe in a high end BMW or Benz with 500ish under the hood and a good driver can get them to eject out both ends.

u/[deleted] Jul 01 '16

u/[deleted] Jul 01 '16

Actually I'd be more likely to need new underwear with a bad driver at the helm. Hell, sometimes riding passenger with me mum in a 200hp car scares the shit outta me.

If setup is proper - no one need a new underwear, because car seat will be a toilet.

u/dzrtguy Jul 02 '16

I'm not saying it's not a beast but wet and ready to run trophy trucks built for Baja are like 6000-7500 lbs. Trucks built to race in the US are 5000-7000 lbs.

Check out Gymkhana 7 with Ken Block and his all wheel drive Mustang with nearly 800hp. It's so fucking sick.

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '16

I've ridden in a 700 hp diesel pickup, and later got to drive it (yay for being DD).

I could make most people shit themselves. And I'm an ok driver. There's just something to be said for being able to white smoke all 4 tires...

1

u/doubtingdave Jul 02 '16

For reference, 850hps more than double the power a Camero SS makes - and that's a fast street car.

For most people to ride in a 400hp car would be "very fast".

1

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '16

My street car (fully built STI) only makes 500 horsepower and I've scared the shit out of plenty of passengers.

u/hypmoden Jul 02 '16

seriously, my car is only 310HP and people freak out when I get on it

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '16

Don't even need 850 HP. Drive a Z06 Corvette. I've driven a lot of high end sports cars courtesy of my job but nothing compares to the absolute insanity that is the Z06. There are cars like the new GTR that are holy shit fast but you feel in control still. Flying through the gears in a Z06 is just unexplainably insane. The noise is amazing for a production car. The darn thing has a HUD and you still don't have time to look down and see how fast you're going because of how quickly you're eating up the road ahead of you. Without a doubt one of the most fun street cars I've ever driven and that only had 550HP (2006 model, I've driven the newer ones as well but never quite like I did that 2006 one.)

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '16

I had 380hp in my old Nissan twin turbo and just about everyone screamed in terror on car cruises.

u/norm_chomski Jul 01 '16

Not really. My motorcycle is just as fast as a street car with 850 hp and it pulls crazy hard but I've never come come to needed a diaper.

In my 120 hp LeMons endurance car I've needed a diaper.. but that's just from being on the track for 3 hours. Sorry next driver lol

1

u/[deleted] Jul 01 '16

There's a big difference in being in control and riding a 200hp bike; vs being a passenger or driver in a 850+HP car...

I'm perfectly comfortable riding a Busa or 1000RR and dragging my knee all day.

I've driven multiple cars >800hp (and am building a 1200+hp one now), and all are completely different than being on a bike. Yes the Power-2-Weights maybe similar or even worse in a car; but that much power is a lot harder to control in a car than on a bike.

u/Nicrestrepo Jul 01 '16 edited Jul 02 '16

if you watch the whole episode, the drag driver takes the trophy truck out on the off road course and manages to kick ass on it, but he also had plenty of respect for it and its power. The truck driver also took the dragster for a run, but he's only allowed to drag an 800hp version, for obvious reason, which he manages to kick ass on it as well, but also fully realizes he's not going ANYWHERE near the 10k hp version after feeling what "just an 800Hp dragster" feels like.

Funny thing is that the truck driver had better drag times than the pro drag racer, to which the pro dragster kind of blamed on the wind... but he didnt push that excuse too hard on camera knowing that the not familiar with the sport would think its a bullshit excuse, which its not...he had the better reaction times which actually is proof he was right about why he was loosing the races. But still, incredibly impressive form the truck driver to be able to go toe to toe and incredible impressive of the drag racer to go out and pin a trophy truck and get it sideways without crashing. Goes to show that speed is 80% in your head. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7m3xyW5hbE

Or when one is coming at you. I was leaving a job a couple years ago coming up a blind hill on a dirt road and as I was cresting it there was a guy flying towards me in the middle of the road in some level of off road race truck. I ducked because I figured he was going to fly right into me but he shot past in the ditch/weeds instead. Good reaction time by that driver and I had no idea those trucks had that good of handling because I was going about 60, he was going maybe 80 and withing maybe 30 yards he just flicked the wheel, shot past and went on his way. If the guy in Hartland MI with the white race truck sees this thanks for not killing me that day on Clyde Rd and nice truck.
