Why are cars designed to go so fast and have so much horsepower?
since speed limits are in place just about everywhere, and those speedlimits are usually 55, sometimes 60 or even 70. Why are cars built to hit speeds in excess of 110 or even 120.
All that extra HP is just a waste.
shouldn't cars be made to go no faster than 70?
