500 HP Club Comment Thread

This is the official comment thread for my 500 HP Club post. I decided to keep the comments in a separate post, since the 500 HP Club post was already exceptionally long. If you have any comments, questions, or requests to add a car, please leave your comment here. If the car is a valid omission, then I’ll get it added ASAP.

You seem to have forgotten the Audi RS6 one of the most amazing cars in the world. It has 580 HP. 2008 camaro SS with its supercharged LS8. The TVR also now has a 600 HP motor.

You might find my “hybrid”interesting.it is a 1975 5 series bmw sedan with donovan aluminum small block chevrolet.The builder,Joe Cain in L A calls it a bmw 570(7 liters or about 427ci)The motor was derived from what was originally a alcohol sprint car motor.It is now what my son calls a torque motor to run on 91 octane gas.The dyno sheet recorded 543 hp.The rest of the car is totally engineered and it looks like a proper Alpina bmw.I have not even come close to utilizing it’s speed potential.Is there somewhere where the above cars meet?People seem to be entertained by the car.Thanks,Casey Williams
