Can't you all just agree to disagree. Power can be defined many ways, and I think Camrycev6 was just describing subjective feelings of power, which by definition, is completely subjective, meaning not fact or provable. If you are going to go by objective power, look strictly at hp and/or torque ratings. Or to get deeper into it, Power can be defined as P = W/t (work/time) or P = Fd (force x distance)/t or P = mad (mass x acceleration x distance)/t. Therefore, the heavier an object is that is accelerating to a given speed over same amount of time is the more powerful. So does that make a crotch rocket more powerful than the Speed3? Probably not as it weighs nothing, although has better acceleration. Is a semi tractor less powerful than the Speed3 just because it's 0-60 (acceleration) time is slower? Again probably not due to the mass of it. Now, I am not a physicist, nor claim to be, and am sure there are errors here. My point is, the op's statement was opinion and that 0-60 and 1/4 mile times are not the end all and be all of subjective or objective measure of power.
