Yeah.... but whose leafs ?? There is a lot more to leafs than meets the eye or to what is in the mainstreme market. I know for a fact that out of the two to three people I know, that 'know' leafs, werent included in this test.
In reality, a barney bolt on lowering spring is just that.... a barney bolt on lowering spring.
After having a few conversations with the creator of the QL, I have come to the understanding that there were some compromises to the overall execution of the system that muted its overall capabilities from its original and intended design. But, packaging is and/or it can be the biggest issue in consideration of the design goal. That is/was probably the biggest issue and it was really the reason why CamaroX didnt get the Lateral Dynamics 3-link. There was a question on exhaust clearance and packaging it smartly. I believe that Mark wanted no compormise and no question in his vision of the completed project... could you blame him ?? Not- me.
Another issue to address is you monkey's that are stuffing 335's in the rear. There is a thing refered to as "balance". If you cannot get enough tire in the front to balance out the steamrollers in the rear... the chassis is going to have issues with understeer that might only be band-aid'ed by dialing the suspension into an area in which it will then affect other aspects of handeling. The two that come to mind is increasing accerman and increasing toe which can have a detrimental effect on tire life and stability.
But however.... it does look pretty cool.
