And EVOMS. They put it on their EVT700 initially but replaced it with H&R springs. Are you at all concerned about the loss of the PASM system? I'm guessing no.

Doing full GMG Package w/ Motons

Not concerned, it will be great!

Will make mods backwards if suspension is too much for everyday until we get to a happy median, not over the edge but right to it.

No one else? Does anyone seriously track on this board?

Please let me know what you are doing as the stock suspension on the track is not up to par.

I track a bit and found the stock alignment to be the biggest issue. The stock suspension + springs were a vast improvement and then the Damptronics were even more of an improvement. You can see in some of my sig videos how smooth the suspension travel is and how little body lean occurs even in the fastest sweepers

MetalMan, Cresson is a place I would love to try out. I have not been there in a very very long time even though I grew up in Ft Worth. My favorite is TWS which has a layout that allows cars with legs like ours to really stretch out. I will take you up on it for sure!

how are the tires wearing when lowered? I heard they eat tires every 4k miles?

Thanks, Ron
