Hemi Joel is right that a street car definition that all agree to will never be found but I'm sorry- If you drive a car 800 miles on various roads and race it several times, its a street car regardless of what someone says. 7 second cars occasionally eat valve train parts and need maintenance so to me some of that is to be expected. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and as was said, this is a discussion forum but I am blown away that someone would look down on people that do this and not find it impressive.
