From a standing start I doubt you could hook more than 200-300hp on your average street asphalt (less if you live in the N. East).
Hell, even if your running to the grocery store on drag radials you probably couldn't use that much hp...
But we all want more don't we? For my part, I plan on taking more visits to race tracks, SCCA events, and closed course driving training events to make use of all this newfound hp, as thats the only real place to actually use it!
550hp LS9? Yes please!

You know what, I say they should scrap this whole LS3/LS9 business, even scrap the 3.9L V6 idea and just make the Iron Duke engine standard.
That, and throw on some 15 inch wire wheels on 60 series tires.
