Hell, at 550whp, you're not even at WOT until second gear unless you're on drag radials anyways.
I don't think the FT needs more power for what it's designed for. However, this idea that you only need enough power to get to the speed limit and the rest is wasted is certainly untrue.

I think the way you drive in public may be different to that of others in this thread.
My current car weighs 3200lbs has 170hp and 180lb/ft and not once have I thought I needed more power.
