How would you build a low 10’s street car
My advice is if tens are your goal buy the rule book and build the car by the book.
EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING on the car needs to be geared towards that goal.
Heres a pic of the interior of my "street" car.
Notice the phone holder. Thats the only creature comfort my car offers.
No window cranks, no ac, no radio, no turn signals, no headlights, no sound deadening, no heat shield, no carpet, no wipers, non adjustable seats, no back seat, no cup holders....(the last one dose piss me off.)
Heres what the cops see when i drive it.
Big slicks, roll cage and a big prostock wing.... so yeah...... I gotta be REAL careful about when and where i use the skinny pedal.....
If i can make one pass at 10.9999 id be happy. Ten years building the car and i hope to make that pass next summer if i get lucky.....
So yes i think it can be done but theres a lot of compromise that goes into building a car that quick while keeping the licence plate and all it would take is one mistake on my part or one pissed off LEO and i loose that license plate and probably my drivers license.....
So save your cash and think long and hard about what you want out of your "street car."
