For most people, anything over 400hp at the rear wheels is too much in one of these cars. Unless it is primarily used on the track, you will rarely use that level of power and the car will be scary fast and easily capable of spining out of control quickly if you get on it too fast. Now I'll speak for me personally. It seems that every car I build gets more radical in the power department. My GT40 had a 500hp 347, my daytona coupe before that, a 430hp 392w (both rated at the flywheel). All the cars before them were in the 300 to 400 range. They were both scary to drive at first, but quickly became the ultimate adrenaline rush, but I also respected the power and rarely used it all. That said, I'm aiming for 500hp at the rear wheels in my Kirkham simply because HP is so damned addicting!
