You have to understand that not everyone can weld, blast ,or paint...so to say you are simply waisting money going with the ST frame isn't exactly true! How much would it cost to take your stock frame (assuming you have one) to a shop and have them convert it to a true coilover, weld the seams and any other issues they find, blast it, and paint it? And you still aren't at the same point as if you just would have ordered a ST frame.

And I think you are forgetting that all the guys that already own tubular arms and possibly a Unisteer rack that want to loose a little weight off the frame and be able to run a wider wheel/tire this is a great option for them.

I'm hoping that you don't really have a beef with ST and think you are just informing others that this isn't the 'best' setup from an all out performance standpoint...but honestly some of us completely honest with ourselves and know that we will never drive our cars 10/10's and for the money this ST frame/suspension will work just fine!

So please back off, you have spoken, people have read what you have to say and they will make their own decision from here. If they are still considering ST then let it go....we don't need to continually hear that you think they are junk/waste of money...that's simply not true!
Just my Humble Opinion as noted in my post. And for the record I have no Beef with ST. I thought this was an open discussion were folks could express opinions. Sorry if you feel my opinions are strong or if you don't agree with them. You know what they say about opinions.
I will try to refrain from future post in this thread.
Regards
