Not Ranked

I think my message was worded wrong by "beating" I meant, hard to get past!!!!
Regarding rpms I couldnt agree more with you guys, revs kill engines, and okay my engine has got heaps of hp and torque, albeit higher up in the range, I am hoping there is a bit down around 4000rpm, but I intend on keeping the revs down even when racing to around 7000 max, as 8000rpm is a bit lofty, and reduces the life of parts.
Maybe in a few more years when I have racing out of my system a bit, I may look at a bigger cube less rev combination for this car, so it can be more streetable! When my engine or the parts came available, the cost wasnt a lot more for some real good race bits, and I seemed to ignore the fact that this is a dual purpose car to be used on the road.....!
