#980, "RE: FF, FR, AWD, I want to race too..." In response to In response to 2
If you're into street racing more than drag strip racing (more racing from a roll than from a stop), and you have little to no money, the best bet for having a fast car cheap is find a 1st generation FWD DSM. You'd be able to find them for dirt cheap, mod them for not alot of money, and they are much better suited for top end running than the AWD cars. Getting the power to the ground in 1st or 2nd (or even third!) gear is the problem, but once on the highwy from 65 on up, with plenty of mods, they'll smoke most anything you would probably go up against.
