I like it. i like it ... unfortunately here in Michigan .... low 11's on Woodward will not get you far ... i need to get in the 10.50 's bracket ... I too want to maintain the STOCK appearing look and you sure did capture it !
Yes the bar for street machines has definitely been raised to crazy standards. I also do feel the line between street and race cars have blurred quite substantially. While everyone has a different view about what is streetable I feel it is a car that can be driven thousands of trouble free miles without need for teardown afterwards. To me many of the cars in power tour are "race cars driven down the road" not real street cars. I hope I haven't kicked a hornets nest here. Lol. Of course power adders like turbos and superchargers add a whole other dimension to the equation. With a little more compression and a solid roller I truly believe I could have had 625-640 hp, but reliability and drivability would have suffered. I am taking this car 2000 km plus on a single trip this summer. I can't wait.
