You have the ugly part correct...kind of better looking with a hat to cover the baldness.
Nothing BAD about HP and racing in my case. When I first got my SRT4 Neon, bone stock 230 hp it ran 13.8 at 101 mph and got its EPA rating of 30 mpg...now its about 300 hp and runs 12.7s at 110 mph AND gets 40+ mpg...
this is Smart car territory. In the next few weeks it will be getting a fuel controler so we can crank the boost from 14 to 24 psi, still on pump gas, and still being totaly street driven. On every car that I have gained hp I have gotten better mpg while driving at steady speeds. The other not bad thing about my racing is that I MAKE money doing it!
