I sure hope not... I don't know that his car would do that great anyway, he's a drag pro, but as far as I've heard him talk he can't drive track, and I know from Al driving my car he sure can't drive track (and they're like best buddies now)

Okay Buddy Clubs are finally installed...

to be honest, as excellent looking as the BCs are, i'm not to happy with a couple of things while doing the install. First is that there is NO STINKIN brackets on the fronts for the brake lines to mount on! I spent two hours modding brackets so my brake lines weren't just flopping around.

Second, one of the front coilovers mounting bracket was welded upside down (i believe). The slotted bolt hole for the camber bolt adjuster was on the bottom instead of the top! This doesn't affect much (it does a little tho and i am VERY ****) cause i have camber plates.

Third, the anodizing scratches very easily.

Fourth... okay there is no fourth...

As for the performance and ride... well i only drove it 2 feet forward, two feet back, and then two feet forward again. I did this to settle the car so i could take some measurements. I was dead on the money. But in the total of the six feet i drove, it rode and handled like $hit.

Okay, well maybe tomorrow if it aint fricking raining, i'll be able to drive it after the alignment and short shifter gets installed. Anyone recommend a good alignment guy?

Anyway, i won't know how pleased i am with these but as far as install goes, the JICs were much easier (they had brake line brackets).

Also a big thanks goes to Ben at RallySportDirect for hooking me up. I would've went with my traditional JICs but they are on big time backorder.

BTW, Ben will you call BC and ask why one of the front coilovers had the slotted hole on the bottom? Also ask them why the ***** didn't they put mounting brackets on it for the brake lines. If i decide i am really that ****, could i get another front coilover with the slotted hole on top? If not no biggie, i'll just scat on your white car!
