Maybe if I get another evo I'll hit you up Max
The shocks definately do kick ***!! Maybe once the Evo 10 comes out you'll make the jump back! I'll be waiting

Sure, I'll take some pics of the shocks in the wheel wells this weekend when I'm taking off my V710s, and switching to my not-so-sticky street tires

You guys don't have to hesitate to ask any questions, I'll try my best to answer them all and for the things I dont know I can contact JRZ directly to get all your questions answered. As for pictures hopefully I'll have some more up this weekend when I'm installing my monster 27MM rear swaybar!

I'll keep you guys posted,
Max Cudich

I'll be testing the shocks this weekend at the local AutoX. You are all welcome to come to take a look and get a ride. It will be at the Cali Speedway in Fontana. I can't guarantee my driving will be top notch, but the shocks definately are!

I saw it in action at CA Speedway's autox practice event.. Max easily took the
top time of the day in the morning. Looks like he's still making changes and
experiementing with different setups though... But he will only go faster.

So far they've been awesome. I had some problems that day at the autox, but I sorted it a couple days after with some changes to the sway bar rates which really brought the car alive. I hope to be attending some more autocrosses in the coming months, and if you guys are interested I can post on this thread which ones I'll be participating in ahead of time, and once again if anyone is in the Socal area that wants to take a look at them don't hesitate to ask.

Regards,
Max Cudich

here we go- that's what i wanna see, guys. more smack talkin'.


i smell a showdown coming....

of course, the only possible solution would be a direct, back to back, double blind comparison, on the same car, with the same driver and chassis team.

i propose that mark and max immediately send me their systems with preferred base settings (rates, valving, etc) in unmarked containers, with logos covered (electrical tape should work), so that i can test them out under nicely controlled conditions up at thunderhill next weekend. i'll be running time trials with ncrc, so timing will be pretty official. i'll bring my chassis guru, and we'll wring both sets out to the best of our ability. neither of us knows the hardware by sight, so it should be quite fair.

see? problem solved. no need to thank me for the solution, gentlemen, that's just what i do.

i'll send you my bill after i submit my followup report.

g++

Hahahaha, I'm not even going to touch this with a 10 ft pole. I just hope you guys can make your own conclusions based on the information provided by both companies.
