Ward, thank you for the great reply. I did come across that spreadsheet when I was doing a bit of research, but haven't had a chance to look over it yet. I plan to as soon as I get a chance! I will be glad to add to it if/when I learn more.
I have two concerns currently... so far I am between an FFR and a Backdraft. This may change, but the FFR was recommended by an old professor of mine who has built four of them along with three different brands of cobra kits (we share many of the same values when it comes to performance and engineering) and Backdraft is so close to home (and also provide a really nicely finished car. So my concerns are:
1) I'm not sure if I would rather build a kit like the FFR or buy a roller like Backdraft. This will depend heavily on both my and my dad's time and the time frame in which we'd like to complete the kit.
2) I am concerned with using a ladder-style chassis... I would love to drive both and feel the differences. I am a sucker for having the best if the ends justify the means, but maybe a properly set-up ladder is alright. I'll be doing plenty of research in this regard!
