After driving Stielow's Camaro X on most of last year's Power Tour, I have NO doubt that I'll be happy with it. Camaro X has the same DSE Speed III/Coilover conversion kit with Tyler's AFX spindles. That car was incredible to drive.

Why would someone make a frame like that? It was to market to all the guys that already had tubular upper and lower control arms, big brakes for stock spindles, as well as wheels with backspacing and brake offset for a stock 1st Gen. The idea was that a person who had all that stuff could buy the bare frame, rack and sway bar from Wayne and bolt on all the rest of the stuff that they already owned.
plus it fit a 275 tire/wheel combo up front; the frame was built for extra tire/wheel clearance. Got one sitting at my house for a friends car, very nice piece.
