Why does using higher power mean that you need thicker steel? "Commonsense" is a bit vague.

There are all sorts of spaceframe kit cars out there, many of them by established manufacturers such as Caterham, Westfield and Dax running power units of well over 200bhp, in some cases more that 300bhp in totally standard chassis without problem.
