No I agree its a no holds bar, I think Big Chief did what he had to do to stay on top.
What I am saying if you are going to classify a car, and its just my .02, a street car is something you can drive to work, the store, anywhere you want, pull into any gas station and keep going.
Lets face it there are a ton of race cars on the street. If you have a bird cage around your head, YOU ARE IN A RACE CAR.
Don't get me wrong, I love seeing that stuff, love watching street racing. Most street racing near me is race cars on the street no matter what b.s. the guys who own the car are saying.
This is where the turbo/supercharged cars have an advantage. low compression pump gas or e85 , real drivable and real fast.
