Rode in some fast cars this weekend. Options

So I rode in a turbo'd civic si running 11pounds of boost, very quick and nice car. Rode in a stock evo VIII, a modded evo VIII with about 330 hp, and a stock gti 1.8t. All very nice rides.

Also watched a supra with 650 hp race a srt4 with 450 hp, the guy in the is a good driver and last week he ran a 6.7 115 1/8 mile. The supra won both time but the srt4 hung right in and didn't lose by much.

Man I need my 3sgte!

All I have to say to you is you really need to learn about the concept of power and speed. Speed is not defined as how fast a car feels, it's how fast the car is going. Your butt may tell you one thing, but the truth is that the car may not be going as fast as you think. Speed is NOT RELATIVE! It is a set thing, it's how fast you go between two points over a certain amount of time, hence M/H (Ratio of distance over time) or MPH or Miles Per Hour, not how fast you think you are going. If we all measured speed by how fast we feel we are going, we wouldn't ever get in trouble by police. Nobody gets off a ticket by saying "Well it felt like ___", good lord man.

Just to put it at rest, you can feel acceleration, you can't feel speed.

Didn't you take physics?

Edit: Also, if you ride your bike down a hill going 25MPH it feels like you are going much faster since you are on such a small object, if you were in a big ass truck you would feel like you were doing 10MPH it's not relative.
