For most of us, our resume is printed in black ink on white paper. For Riley Stair, it’s fabricated in steel and nestled under the white paint of his 1970 Pontiac Trans Am. Stair built the car himself, fabricating all the custom bits of wild suspension to make the 1,000hp big block handle as good as the car looks.

This guy use to be a bad ass professional bmx racer. He built this car in his parents driveway!! Unbelievable talent. There are other videos one has this thing screaming to 10,000 rpm on the dyno

[@THESLlCK]

ever since this hit the streets, it was one of my favorite builds ever

[@dreamseller01]

Love this. A proper performance build, not just a straight-line bandit or poser street car

[@turboclub7658]

DAMN!! Who needs a Turbo!

[@woggybot]

The philosophy behind the car meant it was always going to be special; N/A V8 to 10,000rpm is extremely cool!

[@threadtapwhisperer5136]

Exactly!
Dude sought that like 800hp/800ft lbs all motor i think he claimed he wanted.
Turns out the mechanical Gods granted his wish, just one stipulation, gotta let the RPM eat to 10,000rpm.
I think an old ass interview he originally had it tuned on gas? Then went methanol because dat straight gear wine/dat 8 to 1 10krpm v8 wail.....
Id have sacrificed daily driveability instantly for 10,000 rowdy rpm and that beautiful widebody TransAm.
Dudes got such a killer setup right there.
