I think a more likely bet is that the race doesnt happen, given my past experiences with call-outs on here. If it does happen and you are out, we can talk about it then.Originally Posted by slowhawk01
Oh come on... How many 8 sec 1/4 mile cars are going to be roadracing anyway? The suspension and tires required to go 8's are not going to lend themselves to being a good roadracing setup anyway.Originally Posted by WINDSOR
Have you ever heard of Formula 1? Grand Prix? Howabout IMSA? GTU classes? I think its realistic to argue that small dispacement (N/A and turbo) cars are the most successful road racing cars ever.
And if you or distortion think a N/A 1000 HP bigblock is going to be any more reliable or streetable than a 1000 whp properly built turbo inline-6, you are mistaken. With a mild cam and a properly setup turbo, you can make all the power you can ever need. Even a big block N/A motor with 1000 whp is going to be heavily cammed, high-compression and/or running a rediculous shot of nitrous.
HP boils down to airflow in and out of an engine. If you can flow enough air through an efficient head on a small motor with a huge turbo, and you can turn the RPM to support it, you can make rediculous power. If you gear your car so that you can use this RPM, there is no need for "low end torque" or HP.
Yes, there ultimately is a physical limit to how much air you can stuff into a small cylinder and get out of it through the smaller valve openings, so larger displacement engines will ultimately make more power. But with modern technology, there is no usable "limit" to how much power you can make with a small dispalcement engine.
