it looks like they just painted over the laser/ arrival blue base color with white. and left the two stripes in the middle. hmm, i worded that weirdly, but im sure you guys know what i mean. i wanted a white ss/sc so bad. and still do.

Personaly that car looks to much like a Mustang...

I personaly dont care for white on any car. Black is sexiest in my opinion.

However, for all of you with a SS/SC...why not just find a good body shop and get it painted?

Sweet pics Stu, the GA cup cars are really cool . BE sure to click the link that johnkb8 posted , theres TONS of cool pics . I wish I coulda got a white SS/SC .

I could have sworn they are 17x8 and 5x110...I was offered a set of those wheels for $1200 from one of the teams. They are Enkei RPF1's. If I could find the pm again, I'd buy a set in a heartbeat. I think I deleted it...

thinking about it, I believe he said I'd have to move my shock mounts to accomodate the wheels...maybe so...

A couple of the cars DID have the RPF1's with the centers drilled to the correct 110 bolt circle , not all of them though . If u want a set , call enkei ( the plant in florida) and request a guy named King . He put me in touch with the shop that redrilled several sets of those RPF1's ...I no longer have the # though .

I love my victory red.

Amen to that! I always hand dry my car. The orange shows the water spots real bad too

I'm pretty sure that these being race cars would have been striped and then primered and then painted white. I am also pretty sure that they were built by Powell motorsports so they are the same as the Time attack car minus the NOS and big exhaust. The white one looks really good but I would have left the racing strips off.

Still have no idea why there wasn't a white s/c. The white n/a looks good. So why not the s/c??
