1000whp? Full carbon body?

Big leagues...what I don't understand is why you want to do that.

Could you tell us a little more about your purpose? It clearly isn't racing because no one goes racing with a 1000whp super modified engine. Is this going to be a show car?

Also, I hope you have a lot of money saved up. The engine build alone is going to be $15-20k if you are doing it right. The carbon body is going to be $5-10k if you do it right. That's without even talking about suspension, brakes and drivetrain. If you do those right, there's easily another $15-20k there too.

Those are just initial costs...assuming nothing ever goes wrong from there and you don't have to do any maintenance to your 1000whp motor.
