This street car arguement gets more rediculous everytime. A wealthy man can go out and buy a million dollar exotic sports car that can go a few miles at a rediculous speed and then need $20,000 in maintenance but still be refered as a street car. A backyard hot rodder builds a car that can drive to the local cruise in a couple hundred times and make a few hundred passes down the dragstrip get's told that safety equipment will keep the car off the street. ALL THIS IS PURE BS put out by the people who can not get it done.

My car on motor with a 3,000 stall and 4.10 gears would cruise the street at 45 MPH with my foot off the gas. With 4.88's the speed was reduced to around 40. It was a nitrous combo. It was very loud even with legal exhaust. The car had wheelie bars that did not go more than 18 inches past the bumper. Some hitches on pickup trucks stick out that far. The car had a funny car cage sense I care about my family and want to continue to be able to provide for them. The car is certified to 6.0 in the quarter as I built it to certify 25.2.

For all you haters my home built small block powered car went 8.02 at 170 on a single stage of giggle juice while weighing in over 3,000 lbs. After I quit nitrous the state of VA decided they could make having a nitrous bottle hooked up on the street illegal. I called to complain and they said they were sorry for the law but thought it was OK sense I had switched over to running NA.LOL
