DAYYYUMM!!!!
That's not taking a gun to a knife fight.
Its more like taking a Bazooka to a boxing match.
Aren't those some of the Best Motoring drivers?
It looks like a very young Orido-san.

ok so you can get a 20B to make 1000 horsepower, and you can get a V8 to make 7000 hp (dragsters) but how long is it going to last at that setting???

I understand a little Japanese. Even with all of the work he has put into his car, he has to use a steel pipe as a wheel chuck 'cause he has no parking brake LOL.

I can't read Japanese but who needs translation when "20B" came up on the screen? Man that car could scream.

20b making 1000hp is like a v8 making 1000hp. do you really think its that big of a deal? i wouldnt be suprised if a 20B making 800hp is more reliable than a renesis making 400hp.
