I'm also of the opinion that twin turbos are a bad idea on a multi-purpose car. Josh Kalis' twin turbo Camaro is putting out 1000 horsepower, and he drives it on the street all the time, but he doesn't road race or autocross it. I think the real question is how much of a competitive nature you have. after you start attending events are you going to start making changes to try to place higher and turn in quicker times, or are you just going to have fun and not worry about wanting to get faster, or having a car that can't run more than 10 minutes at a time without overheating on the track?
Hey matt, I was wondering what you thought about all this, you seem to be someone who didnt know much, but dove in headfirst and survived. You bring a good point about ones goals. Personally, It not like I'm trying to take on stielow or danny p or anything at the bigger events, and I'm not far enough along to really be able to even know how competitive im going to want to be after getting my feet wet at a few events. I'd like to say yes, I'll be tweaking to get better results, but for now it's hard to say until I actaully get to that point. Could just be fun in the end but I do like to comete. Time will tell. For now I just now I want to do something that is versitle enough to do a little bit of everything. And for the record, I dont, nor did I ever, have the illusion of road racing a 1000 car, twin turbos or otherwise.

thanks for weighing in, love the camaro but I think I like the mustang even more. Cant wait to see it rolling.
