Figure out how to get 1500hp to the ground and figure out how to keep the front end down all while not turning your frame into a pretzel pulling and you will turn some heads.
Because most of the guys have unrealistic dreams. 1600-2000hp can easily put you in the top 3 if there is enough seat time with racing and it's proven to last more than a couple passes. 3000 hp with redonkulous turbos will get you a dyno queen at best if it plants to the rollers.
