Stooping to an all time new low by filming this in rebuttal to the comments on the speedo vid from the doubters. Actually I saw a doubter comment on my phone when I just happened to be approaching the ramp where I filmed it, so it worked out great.

Why I love a V8
Torque is so much fun. To put this in perspective let me give you some horsepower numbers. At 3000rpm I am only making about 165whp. and at 4000rpm I am making about about 235whp. Not a big amount of horsepower. But at those same RPM's my V8 is making 290 tq and at 4000rpm I am making my peak tq of 310. So while my hp is down my car still accelerates fairly briskly. God I love a V8.
