Why are we all on a board, clamoring with excitement over our 400 HP beasts when the fastest limit in America is 75 MPH?

For that matter, why are the cars even made? Do we really need a car with that much power? Do we need tires rated at 115 or 155? Why put a V8 in the SS instead of a 3-cylinder engine? It would still look cool with a small engine, wouldn't it?
Now that's just crazy talk!
