It's official! Our FAST TRACK C-10 truck would have been the outright winner of the Popular Hot Rodding Muscle Car Of The Year shootout had it...you know...been a Muscle Car. :D

Check out our 'exhibition' times and see how our truck stacked up against the competition in the latest addition to our Magazine Archive: http://www.roadstershop.com/magazine-archive

RS,Congrat's the C-10 is awesome:thumbsup: :thumbsup: .I just Wish Kevin Miller's clutch wouldn't had blown up during speed-stop.He might have finished pretty good.He ran the AutoX with no clutch.

It's a Speedway Mod Lite floater with 4:10 gears (pics here: http://www.lateral-g.net/forums/showpost.php4?p=420669&postcount=280)

Just finished that article last night. Your C-10 was by far my favorite vehicle running. It's a bummer your customer backed out with the Camaro, but as a reader it was a blessing. We got to see a whole different platform display what thoughtful chassis design could do against the state of the art Camaros and Mustangs. Well done dudes.

How much does that truck weigh? And does it really have 345's on the front and back?

It weighs 3610lbs without a driver...and yes, 345's all round! :unibrow:

Thanks! I know what you mean. The truck offered a nice contrast against the muscle cars and showed that a traditional muscle car doesn't have to be a default pick if you want to go quick on a track.

My only question is why Orange RS stickers? and not wood grain RS stickers to match the trim!:unibrow:
