And as you mentioned, 12 bolts aren't as strong as some people think, when it come to manual cars that launch hard.

Yeah, I asked a LOT of questions before I ever touched my car. I was told by the guys that had been in the game for a while that if you want to build a car right to always build with an end goal in mind and start from the back and work forward.
