Just under a month ago Simply Clean brought their event count into double-digit numbers with a respectable tenth overall event.<\/p>\n
This noteworthy accomplishment and event was presented by Air Lift Performance, in collaboration with BC Racing, BC Forged Wheels, Adam’s Polishes and Destination Daytona.<\/p>\n
I hear venues are a bit of a tricky thing in Florida so I’m glad to see the SC guys were able to leap that hurdle by getting Destination Daytona on board.<\/p>\n
I wasn’t able to attend the event but Florida resident (and Stance Is Everything friend) Nathan Powers (of Equipped Photography<\/a>) was.<\/p>\n With so many great cars in attendance he put his camera to good use. It’s been sometime since Nathan has appeared here so it’s nice to see him return.<\/p>\n As the name implies, Simply Clean is known for clean cars and to uphold that reputation they have a pretty stringent approval process. With venue space a premium they can only afford to have the best cars that apply showcased.<\/p>\n Looking at Nathan’s photos it seems like the approval process is working effectively.<\/p>\n Simply Clean is undeniably an event focused on ride height and wheel fitment, and it’s always interesting to see just how much further things are pushed in the sunnier states.<\/p>\n I never try to create an us versus them<\/em> scenario with US and Canada, but not having a snowy winter to contend with certainly gives people ample opportunity to get wild.<\/p>\n Vehicle variety at simply clean looked to be fairly well-rounded. American, Euro, and Japanese cars were all well represented. As were all of the wheel brands you’d come to expect from a show of this nature.<\/p>\n One car fresh off the SEMA show floor is Shawn Bassett’s full carbon 240Z. This car is a monster of a build, done completely in his garage.<\/p>\n Rust necessitated quite the rebuild and an inability to stop once started necessitated the rest. Today it’s a tube chassis, LS powered full size go-kart under a carbon shell.<\/p>\n As for Simply Clean, take a look at a few more of Nathan’s photos below.<\/p>\n Hopefully some day soon I’ll be able to check out the Simply Clean for myself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Just under a month ago Simply Clean brought their event count into double-digit numbers with a respectable tenth overall event.

<\/a>It’s pretty cool to see that the F20 powered Ford Model A above is still kicking around. This car has passed through the hands of a few owners not seeing a lot of street use. As far as I know the new owner plans to shake out the bugs and enjoy the car.<\/p>\n
