Saw this on the Arkley owners website. Thought the final outcome was great. I own an Arkley and I may be headed in this direction. Well, sort of this direction:-)

It doesn't look like he can steer the front wheels without rubbing on the headers...
looks to me like the headers are clear of the front tires -- they kind of wrap following the arch, but a few inches away... appears to be enough room for turning the wheels to me.
Well, the owner did infer that he could turn the car....
Gawd, I'd like to have those wheels, them daddys cost $500 apiece and he has 5!!
I do not know for sure if it turns, but I do know it will go straight....received this email from David a couple days ago...
"My machine is still the most fun you can have – I've now raced it twice at "The Texas Mile" which is a standing-start mile event. My top gear was wrong the first time, so I could only manage 138mph in the mile. Last time I had ignition problems and only did 131. My goal is to hit 150 and then retire!"
"I can recommend going the V-8 route – 425hp in a midget is awesome!"
In talking with David, this is a well thought out car. When my Arkley grows up, I want it to be just like Davids!
