I often wondered if some of these fast and famous folks who I dont see post here come and lurk. Now I do. Thank you Ron Main for setting the inquisitive minds straight.
I also like what RobFrey said, a budget isnt necessarily the money needed to build and run a car, but how the money is alloted to run a car ( if I read what he was saying correctly )
Sum, thank you for mentioning that when someone new to LSR reads these topics regarding what it takes to build/maintain and run a car is rather intimidating and daunting to folks considering jumping in to this sport. As someone who has been around drag racing the majority of my life, I know that racing takes money. Sometimes these topics might or have scared off someone from even trying to do this ( and a liner wasnt even what hey were considering building ) It all just depends on what you want to do ( be a record setter or just go out and have fun ) what skill sets you or friends might posess and how much support you can get from the better half
LSR is doable, its just a matter of to what extreme you want to do it. Thanks again for trying to not scare off newbies
