========================================
Kevin:

The magazine article, "Handling Anatomy", is very good, however I need to know if there are pages 41, 42 and 43 as part of the article? I received 40, 44 and 45, plus the general information about your business.

Please let me know when you have a chance.

Thanks,

Ty O'Neal

BTW: Do you have a car posted on this or another web site that shows off your product/products?

Also, While you are dialing peoples cars in, do you keep performance records as to what the finished car is capable of? (Standard Automotive performance data)

I would like to be able to have the data available where an, "Apples to Apples", comparison can be made against other high performance vehicles, so I can see and understand what performance I would be buying for the money.

-Weight Distribution (50%/50% etc. After restoration)
-Skid Pad information as a fraction of lateral g force (Clockwise and CCW)
-Speed though Standard Slalom Course (70 ft. Cone Spacing, or which ever Testing Method that is an industry standard)
Etc. Etc.

Thanks again.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best Regards,

Ty O'Neal

Hey Ty. You would really need to come down and check it out for yourself. Their website is not that great at the moment, but they have a very high end clientele. The shop is pretty cool, like a big candy store of killer cars. The parts they have are not always there, like their subframe but they do have a corner weight machine as what was done to my car to tune the suspension, but they don't have anything like a skid pad in the area. They typically take the car at the customers request to Thunderhill which has a nice runout just in case. All the performance stuff I would bet is kept on file or on computers. They are race car oriented. You really need to call Kevin and spend some time chatting with him. He's a great guy to talk to and to pick his brain, as he is a wealth of info. I never get board talking to him. A very down to earth guy and he won't BS you.

As Mike so nicely put it our wbs site sucks!!!

Must of our customers do this stuff to have fun, so they don't op for real testing, they are just want a car that is better than stock in braking, cornering, looks, etc. They are usaully comparing thier muscle cars to thier euro super cars.
Also every car we build choices have to be made, where are you going to drive the car the most ( road race track, drag strip, autocross, freeway, in town or Sunday drivers in the country). What are your must haves and your budget? What do you what for power and so on.

-Weight Distribution (50%/50% etc. After restoration)
depends on engine

-Skid Pad information as a fraction of lateral g force (Clockwise and CCW)
See above and total weight, tires

-Speed though Standard Slalom Course (70 ft. Cone Spacing, or which ever Testing Method that is an industry standard)
See above

Etc. Etc.

Thanks again.

What we build are toys and we try are best to give the customer more than what they want.
And as I say in our talk on the phone and Mike's post here is that the best way to judge what we do is to visit us and see our work first hand. And just to give you an idea of what to expect in the shop the long terbig projects are as follows: 2 early Mustangs a 65 fastback and a 66 convert both with coil-over front suspension, power rack and pinion steering, Roush 427 IR small blocks, T-56 speeds, custom Budnik wheels, 6 piston Baer/CAR brakes, the convert is also getting a custom built 3 link with lay downed coil-overs. we are also doing a total restoration on a 65 Cobra Dragon Snake for the owners of the Mustangs. Building a 63 Nova convert with a LS-1, T-56, Alston front and a modified TCI 4 bar rear, with 17X8 front and 18X11 rear. A recreation of a 70 Trans Am AAR Cuda being built from orig build pictures. There are also many small projects like Mike Bassi's Camaro. We usaully have 8-12 cars going at anytime.
