Having owned Hondas for a decade I shared your pain. Momentum is your friend, but what happens when you need the power to carry you out of the corners onto the straights.

I'm pushing over 200whp/180wtq in my small nimble, supercharged, ~2600# car. I think it is underpowered and I drive the wheels off of it, and I swear I'm denting the floor pan thinking I can go fast if I can just break through it.
