Brian Finch was a man on a mission and not letting anyone get in his way. If you recall, we did a full feature back in the June '10 issue ("Built By Owner"), where we disclose all the details of his stellar second-gen. We'll just say that Finch built the car himself and features all Detroit Speed components with Baer binders. His efforts netted him an 8.27 on the Baer Speed Stop, 46.27 seconds on the DSE Speed Attack, 1:49.67 on the BFG Hot Lap, including a 105 mph peak number during the Speed by Spectre Top Speed Challenge.

The Roadster Shop brought out their '70 Chevelle that's been outfitted with their RS Performance chassis. The front features C6 Vette spindles with DSE control arms and a parallel four-bar swivel link setup out back. Under the hood is an LS7 powerplant that's connected to a Tremec six-speed transmission. We have a full feature slated for it, so stay tuned for the complete details.

We've seen a lot of '69 Camaros, but we have to give credit to Brian Finch for building one heck of a machine they dubbed Kryptonite. We got to spend a little time with owner Mark Turner and we were really impressed at the quality of this build. We weren't the only ones impressed as they won The Roadster Shop Performance Design Challenge award.

Hail to the king! Finch has been winning events all year long and hasn't slowed down whatsoever. If anything, he's actually getting faster by constantly making refinements and making some money while doing it. We don't know what the final tally was, but we do know he's walking away with quite a bit of contingency green from Baer Brakes, BFGoodrich, and Detroit Speed. We just wonder what event he'll win next?
