What do you think? True? False?

Sick of the dream that eludes me.
Spend all the cash but still can’t brag to the heights of some.
Hit the gas only to put your *** farther back in the seat faster.
It’s the numbers that matter.
You can avoid the ¼ mile but you can’t hide from the dyno.
Time slips can be shortened but the dyno doesn’t lie.
If you’re not sitting with at least 350 rear wheel you might as well go home.
Run what ya brung & hope ya brung enough.
I can’t even try to comprehend the amount of money I have spent on this passion.
All for the 10 seconds or so of racing.
10 seconds.
Not a lot of time, is it.
But it lasts everyday.
What to add, when you can afford to add it, will it add horses? Do I know someone with one? What will work well with it?
Constant thought, day in, day out.
I want the overkill of horsepower.
600 at the wheels is a good start I guess.
Most don’t see the need. But I only intend to impress the one beside me who wants to test the passion I have for power.
May the best man win.
