There are a few pics of the C10 back on page 19 of this thread. Now that the 55 and 57 are wrapped up, we are going to be back on the C10 and try to have that out to upholstery shortly.

Wow, I missed the C10 update too. Looks sweet! Any changes to the chassis or is it still as it was set-up when initially built?

Thanks, it is turning out to be a pretty cool little truck. The chassis is unchanged from when the truck was on the road in "original paint" last year.

Does the C-10 have a rs performance IRS in it? If not, what kind of suspension are you running in it?

The truck has a 9" with parallel 4-bar rear suspension. We built the truck before we had completed the Fast Track IRS unit. There are some build pictures where you can see various pics of the chassis on our web site.

ABS electic brakes on the car above? Good modulation or are they a bit touchy?

[Roadster Shop]

Yes, it is an ABS electric brake unit. We have used several of them so far and really like them for cars that aren't going to see a lot of track time. They are a hair on the touchy side, but no where near as sensitive as some of the hydraulic units we have used in the past. The pedal feel is great for a street car, I would say OK for a track car. I still prefer a manual brake set up for track and auto x use for better modulation and pedal feel.

I would relate the ABS unit to a new foreign car. Have an Audi A4 and it is a real similar feel.

Is the electric ABS a kit or something you have adapted?
