Well All I can say is this thing is a Rocket. Wow.

Next week before the Fernley Event We plan to change the rear springs and get the suspension a little more set for a base line. We need to put a small .065 spacer behind the throw out bearing to improve the clutch freeplay and raise the pedal release height.

Some more pics from yesterday for insurance purposes.





We also need to move the back of the fender lip opening in the front back just a tick, it rubs a smidge at full lock. Next weekend will be fun.

Nice update.

In the pics, the camaro looks like it sits high. Do you have any profile pics taken from the ground?

It is not slammed on the ground by any stretch, And I'm sure the 6'6" photographer camera angle makes it look even more like a monster truck. We currently have it set with the front arms level and the rear lower link level for a base line. I wanted tire size on this car not stance. The car is currently just over 3000 lbs with my 260 lbs in it. I will see what I can do about some outside pics next week.

Very nice as usual.
I'm digging that truck behind the Camaro as well.
