Another Stielow project, can't wait to see more. Mark's projects always turn out cool, but you can learn something from each build.

Couldn't agree with you more Corey. The "Red Witch" was a phenominal build. He basically turned a car with 40 year old technology and turned it into a car that could contend with some of todays finest sports cars. My favorite part was the addition of the ABS brake system.

I've been hearing crazy rumors about this car for the last several months. Looking forward to hopefully seeing it at SEMA.

I find it very funny that the number one question I get on this car is "what color is it gunna be".

Not how much power, weight, chassis..... LOL

I agree with Mary "Don't think it will matter a whit ..."

I don't tell people the color because it changes all the time and we won't know for sure until it comes out of Joe VanNus's paint gun.

Experiment:

I think you should paint it some really obnoxious color, just to test your "trendsetting" ability. You could start a trend of pink Camaros or something. You will never know the extent of your power until you test it.

Regardless of color, one thing is for sure - -those VanNus boys will have it slick!!!!!!

All joking aside, it looks like another great project. So since you asked for it, I will ask a few questions.

DSE Suspension, tubs etc. was already established
-New JRI Shocks also?
-Any special tricks to fit larger rubber under the earlier body or will it
ride on the slightly smaller wheel/tire combo that is typical of the
earlier cars?
-Same rear axle configuration (Vette hubs) that you ended up with on
Red Devil?
-I don't recall that you ended up utilizing any kind of traction control on
Red Devil, any plans to go that route? It may or may not yield any
performance gains for a driver at your level, but I thought I would ask
if you had considered it.

OK - that's enough of my dumb questions for now.

Very excited to be able to follow a build in somewhat real time - just finished reading the Pro-Touring book you put together, excellent all around read.
