Default What's It Like to Drive 600hp?

I've had a fair number of high performance cars in my life, but never anything even close to a 2400 lb. car with over 600 hp. (By the way, that's a power-to-weight ratio of almost THREE TIMES that of the C5 Corvette I owned.) I've heard lots of tall tales about busting the tires loose in any gear at any speed. For the rare few who have experienced driving a high hp/lightweight car, how would you describe it to those of us who have not? Just trying to prepare myself for the mighty Kirkham that I have on order
