How to tell if your car needs more HP
1) Go to track with your unmodded car
2) Use stopwatch and record a few lap times. 3) Have an instructor do a lap. 4) If your time is equal or faster, then add HP Otherwise, your car doesn’t need horsepower. It needs the driver mod. Instead, this is the reality http://i67.tinypic.com/6ptcwn.jpg |
That's one way of thinking about it.
Or you could think about another way. 1) Ask yourself if your car needs more power. If yes: move to step #2 2) Check bank account. If there is enough money in it: move to step #3. 3) Buy parts. 4) Enjoy! Or like I have. I chose "No" on step #1, and skipped straight to step #4 :burnrubber: |

I'll allow it.

I don't think it is ever a need as much as it is a want. I know I have at least a couple seconds in me at my local track, but I got a good deal so :bonk:

I just slow down for the straights. Not much challenge to mashing the gas pedal.

I made one for figuring out if you need more food:
1) Go to the store hungry on an empty stomach. 2) Buy a candybar and you eat it. 3) Buy a fat friend a candybar and they eat it. 4) If you aren't satisfied and friend is, then eat more. Otherwise, you are full and you don't need more candy. Your fat friend should go on a diet. :D |
Just add hp like this loser in the Supra.

Even on a track there's no point to gritting one's teeth on the straights. Nice calm redline upshifts get the job done just fine. Smooth is fast and I only race myself.

Or it can go like this...
1) Go to the back roads and enjoy your car 2) Look at your bank account and determine if you have enough money 3) Buy whatever parts you feel satisfies your desires 4) Not expect some pretentious person on the internet to tell you what you should or shouldn't do. |

Oh no, what will I ever do when people that I don't know disagree with my opinions and choices, or call me out because, obviously, I am not as awesome as they think they are.
Jebus I'm so lucky to be told what is right by random people on the interwebs. |
