Very true. Driving a buddy's modded but stock turbo srt4, I got on it at too low of rpm. It built boost but the rpm didn't go anywhere so I quickly let out. And his car is close to 300whp and he seriously thinking adding another 50hp soon. It's plenty driveable. Sure it spins the crap outta 215 wide street tires in first or second, but after that it's a blast and he always has the option of drag radials or slicks. Same thing goes for contours. If contour owners want traction, it's out there. They just gotta spend the money and time.
