Yup. I think many people don't quite understand what they are getting into when they aim for "overkill"
It's fun and all that...for about 2 - 3 white knuckle passes. I have some fast setups and it's rare that I get a full pack through them before I have some sort of "unintentional explosive disassembly" happen. I have a RC10B4 that will flip on its back whenever I pull the trigger. Fun? Eh, for the first 5 times or so, and then you've ground off your shock towers. I have the slipper set loose so that doesn't happen, and I'm limited to running on big parking lots, so maybe not as fun as you might think.
I think a more reasonable (read: usable) speed to aim for would be around 45 tops. That'll be a whole lot more fun IMHO. I only say this now, because your target speed will influence the components you buy. It would suck to spend all this money to have something you can't use, and then have to buy another setup that is more reasonable. Just my $0.02.
Good luck with whatever you end up with!
