win win win, this thread is full of win. that rendering looks great.

I am very interested in how this performs. I have not seen any trucks with the Detroit speed set up running yet and would like to see how it compares to others in the marketplace. I would expect it to be awesome coming from DSE. If you bring it to Scottsdale when you get it done, I would love a ride in it.

[PCHRODS]

Low68.....You got it. I know we will be hitting scottsdale for sure next year. Quite possibly even this year. But all you got to do is come ask and I'll save you a spot.

Here are a few of the fab photos from the suspension. In the rear you can see how we C Notched the frame. But my goal here was to keep the frame design looking "stock" by matching the angles and widths of the frame. Now on to the remaining pieces of the rollcage for the rear, finish up the coilover mounts, and pan hard bar and the rear is done.......for the most part.

Rob,

Will you be running the orange truck at Del Mar next weekend? If you are I'll defiantly hit you up for a ride as I'll be on the track taking pics of the autocross action Fri and Sat.

Thanks,

We are planning on bringing the 69 out to Delmar. Granted I get the Transmission back in time. Nothing like waiting til the last minute to fix it ;)

Rob,

Honestly, I post many on this website but I have yet to make a website of my own as of yet. I usually attend anywhere between 6-10 of the Good-guys shows throughout the country during the year mainly shooting the autocross events. I'd love to work it into some freelance work here and there but haven't quite figured that part out yet. I took over a 1,000 pics at the Scottsdale event a couple weeks ago but haven't posted a link to those as I'm looking into what sites would work best for that amount of pics (dropbox, shutterfly, etc). I hope to attend a couple USCA events as well this year. So for now I'm just getting as much experience I can taking pics of all the action taking place throughout the weekend.

What size tubes are you using for the roll bar?

[PCHRODS]

What size tubes are you using for the roll bar?

He are running 1 3/4" .120 wall for all the main bars, the interior cross bars and dash bars are all 1 5/8". I know it adds a fair amount of weight. But our main concern with the cage is safety, and I will sacrifice a few pounds to walk away from a bad wreck, which I hope we never have. But you never know right?

[PCHRODS]

We are proud to announce that Boze Alloys is the official wheel of the C10R




We will post photos of them as soon as they are hot off the mill

One of our fellow Pro-touring.com members Guyt699 is helping us out with all of our Billet Emblems. They are turning out pretty badass. I can't wait to see the finished product.

The billet emblems are sexy. Looking forward to following this.

Thanks Bovey....Do you have a thread going on your GMC? That's a cool looking truck, I'd like to see more of it if you do.

Thanks for your interest guys. I'm just getting a few things organized. There will be a build thread, it will have two stages. The first will be preparing the truck to run in a Targa Classic division (based on a stock chassis) and the phase two will be a full chassis for the Open Targa, I have hired Ron Sutton to design a few things. It will remain a plated street car... err truck.

If there is enough interest, I am going to do a thread about preparing and running race like the Targa Newfoundland. It's a monster and the only Official Targa in North American, 1400 miles of open road race over 7 days.

Anyway, I don't want to hi-jack...

Rob, your trucks are awesome. My current steering is based on what you did. It was your first truck that put me on to AGR.

Ok....now that is pretty awesome to say the least. Let me know when you start a thread about it. I'm glad you like the AGR box, they make a huge difference over a stock box that's for sure. We've really put ours through the paces over the past few years and it still works like it did from day one. They make a pretty reliable product. It has exceeded my expectations.

[bovey]

Question: who's blade style rear sway bar did you use?

And Agreed. I was very impressed with AGR's quality and Matt is a great guy to deal with. The difference is incredible, all the Subaru guys I race with thought I put in a rack... And here, as we've been talking about it and this might be helpful to others - this is my thread on the install.

Looks like the Hotchkis rear sway bar.

Correct, It is a hotchkis rear blade sway bar. We modify ours to give us a wider range of adjustment so we can fine tune that sweet spot in the rear suspension.
