LDR working man drag radial class

I definitely have the wrong job if a car that can run 4.20's is considered a "working mans car". It takes a damn good car to race in the 4.20's, there are some that can make a fast "hero" pass but won't live long being pushed that hard.

No doubt! Let’s be honest and say a reasonable ride that lasts is the working mans hot rod/race car that isn’t going to be a strip terror. Maybe a beast on the street. If you have an honest low 12 mid 11 second ride it can probably be driver a lot, raced on weekends and not need a lot of service yearly. More than likely be a N/A engine.

I don’t know what it takes to make a 8 second ride cost wise much less actually race it often or campaign it around the region. But I can say this with confidence, I would be putting that money into the house. Remodeling or mortgage pay off.

I spend a couple of grand (2-3) max on the ride. I have way to much going on in life to spend on.
