I don't think I've ever seen my name used so much in a thread! :)

Don't thank me...you did the work. And you will be reporting back to all these guys on the results...good, bad, or indifferent. The good stuff is all assumed...we want [and need] to hear about the stuff that needs improvement...whatever that might be.
As I replied in my email a couple of days ago...shock tuning is VERY subjective. And it is also just one area of suspension tuning. Tire pressure, sway bars, driving style, track conditions ALL play a very important part of getting a car to go fast on a given day.
I am trying to work out to be in Des Moines myself...we can make some real progress there, although the limited amount of runs will allow only so much time to tune.

We are obviously very proud of the whole suspension, but especially the shocks. I wish I could take sole credit for developing these pieces, but in reality it was our military relationship with the guys at Fox Shocks that gave birth to these pieces. RideTech determined the dimensions, valving, and appearance parameters, but the internal architechure is Fox. They truly must be seen and felt to be appreciated. We have seven customers running at the Motorstate event this weekend...hopefully seven more RideTech shock desciples!

Glad you like it so far...now we'll make it fast!

And what are those upper trailing brackets for? (Mounts for the canisters maybe?)

hey guys i thought i would post a little update on my camaro. i took the car to a local car show last weekend with a few buddies and had a great time and the car got a good response from the crowd. Like i said before i haven't got a chance to really drive the car hard but from what i can tell on the street the shocks have really improved the ride quality and street manners, but yet the car still feels light and nimble. so far i am super happy with the ridetech components and alot of people have made comments thinking im nuts for changing the setup i had because it was pretty fast the way it was but i believe the car will be even faster after we get shock settings dialed in. Im anxious to get to des moines and feel it out after all the changes. This week im going to do a nut and bolt check on the car and it should be ready to head out on thursday. If anyone here is going to be at des moines gg stop by the autocross and say hi.:thumbsup:

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: You think you'll have it at the Kansas City GG show this year?

Oh yea,We will be in K.C.:thumbsup:

Very cool guys! Best of luck to you at the upcoming events!:thumbsup:

Scott, will the Ridetech shocks fit the SMD subframe and the CA G bar that I have, I'm assuming that is what on Kevins car,

I'll also try Ride tech next week,

Yes they will.You will need a coil over w/ a 4 inch stroke & 550#spring for an LSX style motor.Rde tech also sells the lower shock mounting trunnion you will need to mount the col over to the C-5/C-6 lower control arm.You need the wider version of the trunnon.:thumbsup:

who should I talk to, got a name,
