Making good power, because that 60ft is pretty soft Anyone got pictures of the rear setup? He uses gazzard bros pieces, leafs, tubular traction bars, and sliders.

No, those are Waay different. No chit, total rip off..........I was at Calvert and they said the springs are a special spring they do for the high powered cars.........Forgot the damn name............Maybe parabolic?

I don't know what makes me happier. Seeing these guys hard work on this build paying off or seeing Lyle behind the wheel after all he's been through. GREAT job guys. I agree. Good to see Lyle driving, after what he went through. Not sure I could...

Good eye, it looks like it's all smith racecraft stuff on the car in those pics. I think they maybe old, I see in the one he has santuff shocks and know for a fact it has Menscer's on it currently. I do believe he has switched to the gazzard stuff two years ago.
I to am really happy to see Lyle out driver again. Can't wait to see him in his new car too.
