      You know you have enough horsepower when

      Here are a few I found I thought were funny. Add to it and lets see how long we can keep it going.

      You know you have enough horsepower when

      Your car goes through rear tires like potato chips.

      You get a volume discount at both The Tire Rack, and your local traffic court.

      You leave rubber on the pavement exiting one corner, all the way to the next.

      Your 'significant other' is afraid to drive your car.

      You talk about traction problems during the summer, rather than winter.
      After beefing up Trannys, diffs, driveshafts and axels you worry about what's next.
      People that overhear you think you're lying and people that you talk to think you're crazy.
      You have to explain the cage is so you don't kicked off the strip and not for looks.

      You know you have enough horsepower when you get letters from The California Highway Patrol Foundation, when you live in Texas

      You have enought HP when... The car you drive to work, take the wife to dinner in, and cruise around town... does this:

      Slow car here

      Yeah it's street legal, and rumor has it there are now 2 7 sec 6 spd vipers.

      I get the feeling PGD will be dominated by mopars this year, deep in the 8's.

      My friends and I like to say that "there's no such thing as too much horsepower, only not enough driver".

      the stock price for BFG fluctuates according to how often you change tires.

      your skydiving buddies won't even ride with you

      You will never, ever, need a facelift

      You don't have to use gel to slick your hair back

      You must remove all jewelry and keep hands and arms inside the car at ALL times

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      your gas pedal has become an on-off switch with two choices: stop, and wheelspin.

      You have to tie your hands to the steering wheel to help maintain grip.

      Your front seat backs require supplemental supporting tube frames of their own. Back seat passengers have to be let out of the trunk.

      The military thinks that you are in possession of secret smoke-screen technology and wants it back.

      You hire yourself and your car out for pavement milling purposes. You don't even need studded tires.

      Your exhaust drowns out the car sound competitions. From the parking lot across the street.

      Your dash has painted-on speedometer and tach images because real gauges would be less accurate most of the time.
