Jacob you need to try some r888's on the back of your car

r888's wont help with 900rwhp on the street. Besides 275 hoosiers do the job just fine at the drags. But as said in the 300s is the sweet spot. I found my car the most fun with around 550rwhp, can play with it so it dosnt smoke the tires but if you wanted to then its still easy enough.

Frostyboy here in WA came along for a cruise once and claimed my car was more fun than his (he has a manual with some BS amount of power, 500rwkw at least) because I can stamp on the go pedal and it grips instead of just smoking the tyres and constantly having to feather the throttle.

Short story from Racewars where we had a rolling start 400m drag race :)

You can see him struggling for traction when we pass the rolling start line (about 100m in) and me in front until he gets to 4th I think. We cross the 400m mark with him only about a car in front despite having loads more power. Might have been even closer if it was a standing start!

Yeah I'd like about that many wasps. Enough to chop most stock performance cars out there as long as you have decent rubber, not enough to snap input shafts! Usually anyway.
