I'm hearing about 3600 stall speed for such a ligh weight car. I'm still early in my planning stages, I have had one other roadster, but sold it 3 years ago, and have the itch.
Must be a BB this time... Thanks for the comments guys.
David, I met you one time at VIR , the Club Cranky gang was there.

Al, The higher the stall, the more heat you're going to build. Mostly street driven doesn't need 3600 stall, I'd stay with something in the low 2000's.
