These are not practical for transportation, they serve no purpose other than to drive fast. There needs to be horsepower limits for all road-licensed vehicles and speed limiters placed on all cars that limit top speed to 75mph.

I remember when I had my Mustang GT years ago, and 200hp seemed like a lot. Now, my SUV has about the same power, and some cars are well over 500. Anyone who thinks he needs so much HP will eventually HAVE to use that power to either impress someone or make his own dick hard, risking the lives of intelligent people going about their business.
