Saw this car in person today. 
Never seen anything like it, defiantly raising the bar. Pictures don't do it justice. F'ing amazing.
You had us drooling Milt!
Thanks for the tails.

IMO this is a downgrade from the 92-96 bumper and equips, but I'd still love to see it in real life and it still puts my stock machine to shame. Are you putting the bags back on? Seems like that would be the practical thing to do (lol irony).

the wheels are sex! the *** end wideness is wicked awesome! now the only thing i would do different is. 1 put on some more meat on the rims in the back, perferably 315s of some sort. or the lowest a 295. oh and a lot less camber.. im talking about putting them wheels nice and flush with the fender.
over all it looks cool!

lol people saying run less camber and less stretch.
it takes hard work and dedication to run a setup like this and actually be able to drive it and have it move etc. its hard to get all this **** to sit so tight and not rub etc. the stretch is necessary, and he doesnt want it to look like a mini tubbed drag car.
i am amazed people can get so annoyed at the lack of performance gain and go on abou ta show car etc. Clearly he drives this like this. do you realise it is pretty hard to do that, not to mention the cost of **** breaking and tyres blowing out from camber etc. It is all about style and pushing the envelope and standing out on the merits of this style, not to be a hero with some huge hp super handling street car. its just a street car, big power and track handling are also pretty impractical/useless on the street too you know considering you should be obeying road rules anyway.
respect for evolving your SC and pushing peoples opinions on whats possible, thats what its about. every time someone takes that extra step, it brings the whole level up just that little bit more with what is possible
