    deffinatly keep it for the rear motor.

    we're building for mid/top end power up front and mostly low/mid in the rear, its one reason we are looking into making the rear engine the primary, as the front would be out of its league hauling the weight around driving with a single engine.

    i know your going for straight drag car, but dude these ****ers are so much fun with on demand over/understeer that trust me when i say your going to want to hash it out on a roadcourse with two independent throttles.

    **** ya might as well go to a whorehouse with a chastity belt on
    I want to build a track car unfortunately the budget is not there. Drag racing and road racing is 4th in my priority list and I have too many hobbies.

    The twin engine GTP has weight in the wrong areas to be nimble... the weight is better center and that would be the opposite. The total weight would need massive brakes to be able to run hard on a road course. Too heavy...

    The car I want to build which I planned for a few years, well someone did the exact car I had in my head. I mean it's the same drivetrain idea, same engine, same layout, same size, almost everything.
    And the car is stupid fast around a course....

    check it out:







    mid engine (passenger side) two Hayabusa engines, sequential trans AWD !!!!
    400HP 1200 lbs !

    The version I wanted to do was a turbo ZX14 engine in the same spot.
    Chain drivent LSD diffs front and back.

    Ok Twin engine project has progress as our Guinea pig parts car is succesfully turboed with a minimal budget and mostly stock parts.

    Here's our parts car with a single engine in front.
    That set up is going in the rear engine and front engine of the twin engine car.

    It's only running 16 psi, will bring it up to 20 psi and it will run deep 11s with a single engine, can't wait to see what 2 will do.
