I heard that Foolmoon. In my fifty years of seat time, in some fairly quick rides, i've seen it time and time again. Some joker dumps all his dough in the motor, and does'nt beef up the suspension and driveline, and ends up with a tire spinning pooch, that tosses driveline parts, and then wonders why he got his doors blown off, thinking about the parts bill to come.
It's easy to overstep out platform limitations, as far as H.P., torque, and traction.
A high H.P. build, requires a complete ground up build, of not only motor, but driveline and suspension. Anything less, your wasting your time and money.
I still say, anything over about 375 H.P. on the street, you can't hook it up, and are begging for broken parts. "Only feed the animal, what it can eat. anything more and it will puke'.
Also, which I'm at it. A race is only from a dead stop[either with a flgman or lights]. This , from a "Roll" crap, is so much b.s., and not a fair race[too many variables]. How many race cars do you see, start from a roll? Yeah rite, None.
R. "Moon" Mullins, and I approve of this message.
