Hope this helps

Hey that helps a lot. I understand. But my intention is to have a very streetable 10 sec weekend (or every other weekend) warrior, that I can trailer out to FFWs, so durability is a bit of an issue . Will this limit or prohibit streetability and are there any other practical alternatives?? I know there will always be trade offs, but I want to browse my options.

I'll check out alternative auto. Thanks.
