Very few understand what is needed to run those speeds.

It is how I got into tranny gearing when in HS. I've had the privledge to talk to four of the speed gods.

Gale Banks, Don Stringfellow, Reeves Callaway, and John Lingenfelter (RIP)..........

I've also built a tranny to run ECTA (4th gear) and Bonneville (5th gear)......

they said they have over $50k in that car. if they were smart, they could have built the a car that went just as fast for half that. 200+mph would be interesting in a civic though. i imagine you dont really have a concept of how fast you are really going on the salt though. there is nothing to reference with

Its easy to say what thing cost when your not building it. When building a competitive car, whatever you think it'll cost multiply that times 3. There are so many hidden costs in trying to build a competitive car. The R&D of changing out setups adds up fast.

With that being said, people are dumb to think that they can than sell that car for what they invested into it.
