That's about what I figured... did you see my sig? and that 905 number is RWHP, so if you were to calculate to BHP without the drivetrain losses, uh, got it covered with over 1000BHP.

Too bad that pesky pond is in the way.

^^^ This is funny....

PS. Even 160mph on city roads is crazy.....the smallest bump in the road becomes a ramp to launch off...and other traffic comes up in a second. Brakes would be my biggest concern. I don't do those speeds, unless I'm on a racetrack, even then, it's hard to go past 130mph..

I agree, the public roads are terrible and are not even close to safe above 130 (on the good ones, some of the bad ones you'd need upgraded suspension to push 90).
