Someone had actual specs and the SR is within 5 pounds of the KA, with the turbo and all piping attached.

Well its speed tech you are dealing with…they are more about speed in a strait line, rather then speed around some corners

To better explain what I mean:

F1 racing team cost a minimum of 200 million per season (Ferrari spends 500)

Drag racing funny cars cost about 200,000 for a season

Going in a strait line is cheap.

LOL!!! What are you dumb? A top fuel dragster has 6,000+ horsepower and they rebuild those engines BEFORE EACH RUN. So if you go to the finals, you rebuild that engine 5 - 6 times in one day. Raceing in general is not cheap, please don't hate on drag raceing.

i don't think he was hateing on drag racing i think he was just proving a point, the whole dynamics of the car change depending on what you are useing it for, (drifting/dragin) F1 is the most expensive you'll find, they use one engine for 2 races, everythings carbon fiber and kevlar, and when they aren't racing they are spending millions of dollars in R&D and testing, it is alot more expensive than drag racing not to say that drag racing sux or nething cuz it most certainly does not, it is jsut less expensive

they arent a bad spring for mostly daily driving with the occasional drift or autocross.
