Default If you're around on the 26th...maybe I'll stop by on the way back from picking...

up my bumpers in SJ. The rates for an Avant have me concerned tho.

Default The rear springs are progressive, at static load they start going pretty stiff in compression...

just come drive the frggn car. You may be right, that they're not stiff enough for an avant, come by anyway.

Default I dunno, this track nub here does fine on PSS9's set at 1.

And the three instructors that I've had ride in the car have all said its well behaved and good.

Default Though you ain't might be sorta screwed by low PSS9 rear spring rates on your Avant...

cause we can get you setup with the proper springs. I am working on stepping down on spring rates for the Track Sport to make for a smoother ride and get out what the market seems to be craving. The PSS9 has low spring rates IMHO and people are considering it a track oriented suspension so if that's what the people want a Track Sport with 500/600 springs is quite nice and is stiff enough for what most people want on the track. I am going to try a little stiffer for the Avant to control the rear.

We still love you, now get to work or no cookies!
