That car is absolutely sweet looking.....:hail:....There are very few color combos that look better then an all black car...
However in his ad i noticed a few details.....
1st off......How in the name of *** did he get that car to weigh 2600 pounds????????
Please don't do that to your IROC, you are asking for a nice explosion if you crash it.......

haha no fortunately i dont have a 3 gallon fuel cell, i'd only make it to the corner and back if i did, however i do have a 2 gallon fuel cell mounted in the stock battery location for my nitrous 
I was wondering the same thing about the weight of the car, i have absolutely no clue how got it down to 2600lbs, i'm really hoping for 3300 and even thats getting hard to do

Cars only look good like that when they have enough horsepower to require looking like that.
Nothing's more lame than seeing a pro-street looking car and finding out it's only got 3 or 400 horsepower.

What would one have to do to get a stance like that?
What tires, wheels, and is there as drop?
And what's funny is I have a different pic of that car on my pc, as my inspiration, and I saw the pic you posted and not knowing it was the same car I was thinking, "dang that car looks just as good as the one I love" hehe.

Also getting that stance isn't a problem, first of all he mini-tubbed it to fitting the wheels and tires underneath is no problem, he's got 345's under it!! All u need for the ride height is either a lower spring or adjustable coil overs, i plan to acheive the same look.
Anyone got any more PIX of this car????
