and after that the car was easier to drive and neutral ....that owner is very happy now

its not easy
to follow up on this....I can not mention some of these customers names (many are top in the industry and dont wish to have this help reveled) I will say that most of the re-configurations done to these top drivers cars was with Rons input...and these drivers look for that sharp edge to help them stay up top...

my own car was under the knife to have Rons help last season and I hurriedly put her back together to move to another state and shop, so Jane isnt even the Jane of last year, but this winter she will have the suspension picked at, re-examined, and move as needed, I know it will be an investment in time and money to Jane back on top along with a second project to run next season....hopefully...I do know that one will be a SEMA car ..that booth is already slotted
