TEIN HG Gravel Spec and Cusco camber plates. Not much lowering in my future with these things. The rear can drop about another inch, the front maybe 3/8" and a bit more if I mount the RE070s.

^sweet. My AGXs are pretty soft on softest setting, but those teins sound super cool.

Dammit may 17th? I signed up for duel at deanza too, and wont be able to go on the 18th. I'll be visiting in SanDiego for a girl of 3.5 years :sigh: and a free Coheed Cambria Concert...with Sean Kingston lol

SICK VIDEO! thats hella clean looking.

Damn Bryan! kickin it sideways like always

And keep up the awesome track...nice open turns with no cones, gotta love it. Looks like some nice elevation too.
That track is MASSIVE! almost like a mini stage! i could see people missing a lot of turns on that course.

I've never known of UP2MTNS to do anything half assed....those definitely sound badass. How stiff do they go? Track day stiff?

oh they're not mine....I assume MoDrift is Skylar? (haha) but thanks for the compliment!

my buddy in SoCal has a bugeye rally car I crewed for last year at gorman, he had them on there. They did really well and gorman is a rough course.

I don't know just how stiff they get, but I would be you could get away with track days on them. I don't know what the spring rates are.


EDIT: found'm
Subaru WRX (04-07)
(Spring Rate 252 lbs\In Front, 196 lbs\In Rear

^^that's a nice ride, but not sure what that's like on the track, depends on dampening.

Yeah, that's me.

I ran them full soft at the event since it was my first time running them and wanted some kind of baseline. I think they'd be reasonable for track use with compression and rebound are dialed in accordingly (certainly anything will be better than the blown OEM struts I replaced).

I'm hoping those Rally411 guys will post their footage as well since they caught some good shots of the optional jump past the finish line.

It was designed with the run off to let people have some fun if they wanted to keep the speed - same as the first Prairie City event the month before.

It wasn't so much a jump as it was an incline that became flat - so the road basically drops out from under you at speed. There was a decent straight stretch before the finish... I was around the top of 2nd gear. It was fun. There's a ton of travel on the TEIN HGs so I think it took some work to actually get all 4 wheels off the ground. I have no idea what it looked like though - maybe it was lame air - but hopefully there will be some video.
