wow I always wondered how much I was giving up to one of the jelly bean modifieds, after lokking the info in this link my s10 is uses 39.2hp to just to overcome aero drag at only 60mph where the c-5 vette was listed as only using 18.6 hp for the same . not sure how much that changes at 150+ . I never really thought of the s-10 being that bad? I guess I need to re-think that.
