30 years between runs
Well, i dont think if you say "street car" that it can be classified so pin point. If the guy drives it on the street, and it doesnt explode, or he get arrested.. in the world of street racing, it's a street car. If you're talking licensed street cars, even then, cages, race tires, loud exh, no wipers, missing interiors, it's all fair game. The Butcher's replacement car was an Iroc that raced in Super Gas. It had a title. He put in lights, a progressive NOS controller, a bigger engine, and added some factory interior, and exhaust. That car, as it sat, was an 8s car on the track. And, he drove it to the races on a few occasions. A buddy's comet runs 10.20s on the street. It has a full cage, lights, wipers, exhaust... It's driven everywhere except the track. They are common now. And with these big strokers, it is pretty common. in my younger days, a high 12s car was fast on the street. Now Neons do that. A solid street car needs to run low 11s to get respect if he's racing it on the street. There are no rules there. Nothing. So saying "well it's this or that or it's not a street car" means nothing. If it's out there, and doesn't get towed/arrested, it's a street car.
