God damn 20k rpms if fucking insane I've only seen 12k and that was impressive as hell. Thats the beauty of F1 anything is possible when you throw enough money at it.

Make my car a Ricer car... HUMMM.. not a bad Idea... I already have the glowing pedals... New Boot, and shifter, seat covers, floor mats and steering wheel cover... =-)

I know, I know.. I can get those Rims that have names and Logo's in them... Yeah.. that would be perfect... hahahahahahah

I'll consider the Neon Winsheild sprayers.. but not green..
Muhuhuhahaha

I would say, ferrari 12 (high revving = drool). Then a boxer turbo, followed by a V6 turbo.

straight 6's are good, two of them are better. if they are horizontally opposed it is even more preferable in terms of efficiency and sound (i.e. testarossa). high revving v-8's sound quite good as well.

i have to admit that i am a huge 427 cobra fan and nothing can beat those side pipes for me....

though a 67 sprite finally starting after 12 years of garage sitting and 2 years of engine work would be pretty nice about now too (meenkeene)

Surely I5s are more important to include than those petty four bangers.
