The September Feature is Mark Stielow's latest 69 Camaro build. We've all followed the build and it's a bad ass follow up to Jackass. Mark passed along a number of action shots, some different build shots, as well as all the tech specs and performance numbers. Check out his Feature page for all the details.

Congrats on the feature Mark, I am sure this car will get alot more hardware and press real soon.

Am I mistaken or arent the wheels Fikse Profil 5s?

Like I have said many times before your builds were a major inspiration for my own build.

After all these years the target is still on your back. Definitely the best one yet. One question, are your performance numbers with KDW's or R compounds? Do you have to shift to hit 60?

The numbers were with R-1s and the 0-60 was with a shift. I moved the rev limiter up in 1st gear to 7000 RPM and now I can hit 60 MPH without a shift.

But, I found out it doesn't matter because Optima is not doing 0 - 60 - 0 MPH it is a stop box deal. Not sure what speed we will hit or the distance.

Thanks for everyone’s kind works on this build. The car has been awsome!

The paint and engine are the high lights. This is the best car I have ever done.

It has been an evolution of learning’s over time and the availability of good aftermarket and factory parts.
