What If Build Ideas...for Land Speed Racing

You might have covered it but what class are you building the car for?
Classic Gas Altered is the plan. Later Classic Blown Gas (or fuel) Altered. The records are way inside my wallet, so the personal goal is to #1 build a car myself, pass tech, and make a run, not caring anything about speed. #2 throw hp at it and see if I can go 200mph. Licensing happens along the way, but that is the plan. I will be at World of Speed in a couple weeks to help a friend with a Lakster. Should learn a bunch while there.
