Brunton Stalker 3.4L Chassis #34, 2004
Street legal and registered in Texas as 1959 Lotus
Very well sorted for Auto-x and pleasant road manors. Perfect balance and tons of useable power. I've had the car for 5 years and worked out all bugs and handling issues- including nasty oversteer inherent in the design.
Road driven and auto-x regularly, never wrecked or failed to drive home. Needs nothing. Perfect for the owner who is looking for a hard-core street/track car and appreciates an old-school approach to hot-rodding.
Some pics posted in Members Ride section in "East Texas Stalker"

Includes: Goodyear slicks, custom-built trailer, plenty of parts
Asking $24,000

It never fails, I am always asked the horsepower! My generic reply is "about 300". In reality, spending $ on dyno pulls doesn't help me. I catagorize horsepower as "not enough" or "enough" to get the job done. The real variable, and more relevent, is WHERE the power lies in the RPM range. Positive displacement superchargers are excellent for this as they can make power at ANY RPM desired with proper setup. This car has a power band from 2500-6250 with enough torque on hand to blow the 10" goodyears loose at 3000 rpm with a twitch of the throttle. As I am setup for auto-X and see most runs in the 2800-5500 RPM window (3rd gear), righ now it is "enough". "More" wont necessarily make it go faster- but there is plenty more in the motor if needed. :auto:
Just my opinion on HP numbers!

Ive just recently heard about this event and considering attending with the Stalker.
About what is the cost?
Also any tech issues that need to be addressed for the track event?

It's funny, I was worried about visibilty issues durring mockup. As it turns out, you look "through" it when driving and don't notice it. Other drivers have said the same thing when in the car, so it's not just me. Good driving requires you to look far ahead and things close in get ignored. Wierd but true.
I agree it does deviate from the traditional 7 lines but Stalkers are a unique breed ayway. The "cool factor" cannot be denied. As if one of these cars does not already command attention, this pushes it over the top. If it didn't make the car perform better however, I would have removed it and put everything back under the stock scoop. It works- it stays!
Here is the trailer. Low and lean. Long ramps keep the car from hitting even with about 3" ground clearance when sitting on slicks. total weight with car loaded is about 2500 lbs. ramps fit into the trailer's bed once the car is loaded. I have pulled it at 90 mph with no concerns.
