Re: Speedtech's Pro Touring C10 Project

@ John- The purpose for our truck is more street cruiser than anything, and of course it will go to cruise-ins and some car shows to spread the word of the ExtReme suspension and chassis. It will be at SEMA this year too. The auto trans and Michelin street tires really help bring on the comfort.

The purpose of the new ExtReme chassis and suspension design in general is to perform along side the committed "race" trucks in the pro touring world- our C10 is right at home on the road course as well as it is on the autocross. This set up is perfect for folks that are serious and want to compete in events like the Optima Ultimate Street Car Challenge. But it will also be perfect for the guys that simply cruise or like to lay frame too.

I can't and don't want to be a sales guy here, but having seen the build from the beginning to the end I can say the design crew studied current trends in Pro Touring, they studied road race suspension design over the last 30 years, and considering too the folks that won't ever race they put together a totally new computer optimized hybrid that is right at home anywhere.

I'm the guy that does the visual design and the renderings so I think it looks cool too.
