Opinions on Ground Control

Well i was looking into the market for a nice Spring set for my 07 sti. Something with not a crazy amount of drop and was going to go with RCE yellows and after more research I figured out the company Ground Control is literally half a mile away from my house. I went to there site and saw what they offer. It looks like some really nice stuff and really nice coil-overs. Wasn't going to go with coils at first, but would love the option for track events and what not that I would like to do in the future. So the question is, has anyone here had any of there products? Would love to give them local business, but idk much about them.

thanks again
Cameron

yea just went in today and talked to Mark. Really great and nice guys with an excellent product. Really don't know if im going to be needing coilover setup on my car so i'm doing more research on here and nasioc ( i know there is just tons of info over there). There shop is really awesome. They have some really nice BMW m30's there and they are so knowledgeable. I'm still deciding, but just wanted other opinions of owners of the product in track day situations, DD and possibly trips up to Tahoe and what not.
thanks

Ground Control has excellent products. A lot of autocrossers use their springs and coilover sleeve kits to make a high quality set-up.

No, Mark sold his STi to a decent hillbilly kid near me.

And, yes, Ground control makes very good stuff, the people are very friendly and will help you get your set up correctly.

Never heard of them before, but from the previous statements about them ^, and this on their website:
All Ground Control products carry a lifetime guarantee against defects when installed and maintained correctly. We strongly recommend that all of our products be installed by a competent, qualified mechanic.
Sounds good
