Pistons: Cast vs. Forged

All,

I've seen some comments on cast vs forged pistons. What's the general consensus here? I don't see a cast piston available from NRHS. I assume that performance parts are forged and more expensive.

I did a search on "forged cast" and found these. They should cover everything you ever wanted to know. If not ask some specific question after try to search for your answers.
