Let me guess.. The "did he really do it" thread got deleted I assume.
In all seriousness Alex. I just want to see a good race go down. You have broken my ***** for a long time now, I figured I can do some ball breaking back to you
We're going to have a rental soon, I'll let you know when it is if you want to come on down.

Your could argue that....
Alex removes all of his interior at the track,thats a race car too
Petes car is a race car...
The point I'm trying to make is there are cars out there with less going faster,A race car can mean som many different things to one person,FWIW I dont see Alex or Petes cars being race cars but to someone else they are,so its really a mute point...

JS is correct the term is used loosely at times. If you want my honest opinion how my car sits right now its a race car. However, there are numerous other things I will be doing to the race car to make it a lighter race car.
But where it stands now, I could put radials on the rear tires and drive my car anywhere I want to... at high rpms on the highway

The 'what constitutes a street car versus race car' debate will never be resolved.
Is a car that still has air conditioning/heater/power steering but with no interior/no radio/no air bags in it at all still a street car?
Or how about a full stock seats/stock interior car that's removed A/C and power steering and has a spooled rear?
Does a bone stock car with merely skinnies installed suddenly cost it it's street car status?
It's ALL subjective and opinion.

seeing as how my car is insured, inspected, has lisence plates, can be driven in comfort, gets 25+MPG, and I wouldn't think twice about driving my grandmother in it. I think that makes it a 'street car'
Anything can be called subjective of cource, and anyone can aru their points all day long, but eventual you have to look at streetability. Would you drive Pete's old car to North Carolina in comfort? I drove my Trans Am to High Point last summer with the tops out, listening to the sterio, and getting great fuel milage. I think that speaks volumes.
Matt, Ball busting is all part of the way we [racers] communicate, so its all good. We all do it.
JS, Yes those guys are faster, there is always someone faster then you or me. But if you want to use reletevism, look at their race weights? They are 300lbs less then my car. About the same weight as Pete's car. The reason why these guys want to see Matt/Pete and I race is because they know us, they do not know LS1Joe and so on. That is all.
