You are going to love the Hotchkis system. My car handles so much better.

Pulled a 9.83 at 132. Pulled the shocks off the car and lowered the tire pressure and pulled a 9.80 at 130 and lost 2 tenths on my reaction but picked up my 60ft. Went fast enough to get kicked off the track for good until my car meets the requirements for the sport com class. Either way im happy

I was at my in-laws on Saturday and I lifted the car cover to see if she was still there.
