I don't like the limitations that most race classes have because I don't think I could make a competitive car that I would like to drive on the street. I can be bad about leaving things undone.  I'll never regret adding 50 lbs of extra steel if my chassis stiffness increases by 50%.  I know I'll regret putting together my Cobra if I don't investigate the chassis first because I'll miss the opportunity to optimize my rear suspension unless I tear down the entire car again.</blockquote>
