What would the ULTIMATE thing be for a car you were building?
I think my ultimate dream would be to have a car that can top 200 MPH, and still be street driven. I'd love to enter open road races and go up against Ferraris, Vipers, 'Vettes, etc.

It has to be cmfortably street driven, and still be able to out handle & out run some of the best that "regular" Auto makers can produce.

A car that can handle,stop looks good, runs the 1/4 in 14 or faster, sounds nice and has a special meaning
