it's pretty hard to make up for a 600lb weight penalty. I'd be interested to know how a car rated at 400bhp is only putting down 300... standard losses even on the big side would land them at 325+ to the ground. I think someone overrated their engines... GM. At least ford underrates theirs. I like happy surprises like finding more power than I thought was there but I'd probably be pretty terse about finding less than I paid for.
