LOVE the car.. however I liked the wheels in the rendering more that the ones ultimatly used. Why the change?

Other than that I am dying to see the car in person. I love (what I can see of it) the packaging of the LS7 into the car and how/where they fit the oil tank.

Very cool! :thumbsup:

Ryan-

It is indeed mini tubbed with the DSE kit, he is running the 18x9/18x12 combo, with I think a 335 rear Michelin tire.

Steve-
Fikse just released this variation of the Profil 5S for racing, so it has some special features that Mark wanted. I like 'em.

no roll bar?
 
No caqe/bar?? Did I miss something or is it not existent?

The car is really growing on me, it took some looking at to appreciate it. The blacked out tail and black wheels look great. The black center wheel thing was starting to get played out, but it looks just perfect on this car, very well executed. It would almost seem like people would like it just because stielow built it, but it is a very well done car IMO. Its nice to see something simple and meaningful for a change, instead of so many cars that get built for looks(whos not guilty of wanting your car to look good) At first it seemed too familiar to the mule, but now after looking at it, it just happens to be the same year/model built by the same builder and that is just his taste. Hope someone gets some good use out of it, like the Mule I would love to see some shots or hear about some action on the track/autocross!

BTW the ATS headers look killer! Wish I could afford to have something like that built, ground clearnace sucks with four 2" pipes stacked under the car.

If you look closely you can see what looks to be a DSE 4-point bar in the back.

Scott thanks for all the pics! It was nice to see all the detail...I like the wheels!!

It nice to see a car come together so nice with just the right parts . Not over the top . Very cool car .

I guess the question is, will this one run The One Lap of America before it's set to Charley?? I'd like to see this one used at the track first!!

Does this car have an e-brake?

I find myself just staring at all these pics...I love the back to basics (performance) look, although we all know there is far more to the car than what you first see...

Yep, it has parking brakes in the rotor hats.

I didn't see a handle or foot lever. I though he might have used a Lokar handle again, but I don't see one.....
