Alright with Tbirds Mini and the Sol thread has led me to ask the question (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/cool2.gif) .
How much hp can a 4th gen fbody really handle and still handle (without having to back pedal or get into changing all the susp)? I know the drag racers go 700+hp and go 9seconds. But it seems that 700+hp would be a little hassle to control in autoX and road racing with a near stock chassis (even with the GC setup). I know its an open ended question because of use of throttle and even more open ended when compared to a small tight low speed autoX verses an open road race.
