Roadster Shop SPEC series debut

[Boss 5.0]

I'm curious, and forgive me if this seems like a really ignorant question, but what are some of the major differences between this and their top of the line chassis?

So I have a 55 Chevy Bel Air, why would I order this Spec series vs their higher priced chassis? Clearly for the price drop something is different.

I like what I see, and I really like the price point. This makes a chassis swap more attainable for me. I'm just curious on the differences.

Thanks

Fast Track chassis uses IRS for rear, front spindles, shocks and lowers are different than SPEC chassis. I'm sure there are other differences, but I like the SPEC for those like on a smaller budget or those who don't need the track chassis components, etc but still want very good handling & performance.

Thank you. That's what I was looking for. Makes complete sense to me now.

The major difference in the price point versus the two are the Fast Track chassis's are 100% CNC cut and welded together, hence more man hours. The SPEC series uses mostly square tubing cut and the ends welded together to form the chassis.

Unfortunately this is WRONG. Irs is an option but does not come standard on the fast track chassis. Many many vehicles that utilize the fast track chassis have a solid rear axle. No biggie, just sayin'

Thanks for clarifying as I didn't go to their website. The two fast tracks I have seen in person had IRS so I assumed it was part of the diffference, being the SPEC was live axle.

Hoping to see a mustang version in the near future. My '69 is begging for one of these.
