I will start looking into making some type of a front air dam setup that is possibly removable so I can take it off when not racing, otherwise it would get ripped off every time I go through a drivethrough.
Do the high speed guys use quick ratio steering boxes? I would think this would be bad at high speeds.
Thanks for some of the last few posts, very informative!
And for those of you who think I am a moron, Shut up! How many bikes run roll cages??? You are not dangerous if you don't have a cage and go 150 mph, would it be safer in case of an incident... Yes, of course! I am not any more dangerous going 150 mph in my car then every bike in the world, I would say I am safer in my car as it sits then on a bike. So if every bike rider crazy for going 150 mph with no cage?? All they have is a helmet, jacket, and boots!
Point is My car is very safe for what I have been doing, I dont have a roll cage, but everything else is up to standards, good tires, brakes, sfi approved parts, etc.
AND...Mazspeed...Who said I would be going 200 mph on public streets?? I said I want to start doing some type of road racing! Did you mis understand me?? So far I have not done anything that anyone on this board has not doen on the street, I go through the gears on an on ramp..Is that a big deal?? Have you not?? I drive slower than most people on a regular basis and have a clean record. I am not a wreckless driver by any means, I am putting nobody in danger. Is this understandable??

You have yet to say anything about racing other then your blasts down the freeway, and how you can achieve higher speeds. Jody said the same thing, you didn't correct him. Going though the gears on a 400hp car or less is quite a bit different then going though the gears on a car as fast as yours is. You obviously don't have the responsibility to use your car correctly. It's not built for this kind of speed. Do you know most rims on the road today are not designed for this speed? Bonneville cars, all have steel wheels and are rated for the speeds they try to acheive. Your tires, might be rated for it, but dont count on it, not for a sustained run. You have no cage of any kind?? Yeah real smart and real safe. Any asshole can stick in a 1000hp motor and say I want to go 200mph, but you completely fail to understand what it takes. Let alone dragging down the street in a car like yours. And no, I never went down the street full blast with a 1000hp car going though the gears. There is a place and time for everything, but you have no idea what time that is. That alone makes you irresponsible and wreckless, and combine this with stupidity and you have a lethal combination. What part of this do you fail to understand? What part of this is not wreckless?
