Street parts have pretty much the opposite expectations; people want lots of functionality, don't want to cut up their cars, demand low NVH, and it has to last forever with no maintenance. It's a much more demanding task.

I totally screwed that up. Typing too fast.
I meant, they are good on the street, but not good racing.
