It doesn't matter what I think, as long as you are happy with it is what matters. It's just my opinion.

As I said, it's relative to what each individual thinks is fast or what they want. It's my opinion from being exposed around other friends, I don't think a 600-800rw car that weighs more than 3400lbs is "fast". It's a fun, quick street car certainly but not "fast". It's enough to win most of your races while cruising around town running into random people, but if you go to car meets with other car people are to race, chances are at 600-800rw you're not the fastest car at the meet.

We're spoiled these days. Years ago my 93 540rw Cobra was a fast car when most foxes were bolt-on cars running low 13's- mid 12's. Blower cars weren't all that common. Now, hell, if you aren't making at least 1000rw you aren't even competitive with all the street monsters running around the DFW area. lol.

It's all relative bro. Don't take it personally.

How often do you run into those street monsters on the road? Pretty much never unless its at a car meet like you said. So when my car is all said and done I'm sure just crusing around I won't have any problems beating people. But I'm sure ill get caught off guard and find one of these street monsters as you put it and just crush me. Which is fine by me.

my supra was Draggin bitches when it only made ~450 rwhp...
the fact that i have a 1000 hp car and im not even CLOSE to the top of the food chain in DFW is realy a sign.. all the guys who think my car is some uber street monster prove that they are used to playing in the sand box...

Yeah 1100-1300 rwhp or whatever your car makes isn't a street monster. Stop being so damn humble about. Sure you're not on top of the food chain but damn man you have a insane vette that all of us would love to own.
