Many talk about problems keeping IAT temps down and installing more cooling tanks in the trunk. One must consider all these additions in the modding cost. Nobody ever said going faster is cheap but, at what point is too much power even useable for street use. Have you ever tried a dig race with 800-1000 RWHP on anything less than drag tires. So tell me where on the street can you use that much power. It comes down to bragging rights, JMO.

Who said anything about street racing or trying to dig race a car with that much HP on street tires? WTF is that even coming from?
If you're trying to race from a dig on an 800-1000 RWHP car on street tires and on the street then I can tell you right now that you're gonna end up killing someone or yourself. Nobody should be racing any of these cars at any power level on any streets anyway. And if you're racing at the track then traction will be solved with seat time, knowing how to launch, and having a properly built vehicle on a properly prepped track. Everything you mentioned is the exact opposite of that.
