Geezus christ. Is this car going to be professionally campaigned in some race series to make some of that money back? Please tell me that build isn't for a street car that only sees occasional drift days at the track...

Depends on your purpose for the car. A 1:10 power to weight ratio usually leaves me pretty happy in most situations. But I see your point. As enticing as it is, I think the VET swap is far too extreme a mod for modest goals like mine.
