That's a mustang??? What's a VTEC? Is it the photo angle or is the frame of the car twisting?
My chair can do that... but it hurts when I fall... Pinch LOL!

yes too much torque can be a bad thing, as it will twist the frame of your car..making it well...broken..
 
VTEC is a honda word for some special crap they supposedly do to your engine.
 
Just like my Continental as 'intech' technology....i still dont know what the hell that means...it just says on a badge on the back bumper...INTECH 32V-5.4 V-8

yes thats an incredibly overhauled mustang, possibly even saleen parts
 
the twist you see:
rear wheel drive cars have the engine in the front linked to the wheels in the back, the engine is built to turn left to right, so when you rip off the line like that and the car lifts off, the power of the engine attempts to pull the car around it in the same circle, causing the twist in the frame
 
hopet that makes some senseSmile
