I heard the same crap and I didn't listen Have the DSE frame in my car and it is the best thing since sliced bread. I have seen the speedtech and it's a quality piece that fits a market that is needed. I like the look of it compared to other fabricated frames plus you can use your trick control arms you already own. I think the stock sub is ugly, but that's me.

LOL! Pretty funny stuff! I am so happy we have multiple products!

As for the quality of the Speedtech Subframe, We have it in EmptyNest and I am very impressed with it. I had my choice of subframes, I wanted to try the Speedtech in one of our own cars and I am happy I did. As for performance, It has done pretty damn good.

Here is a little video of the first and only pass I made at Run Through The Hills. Now keep in mind I had not walked the coarse (I got there real late, Hungover, Bill was pissed!). So being my first lap (only lap) I am being fairly conservitive, and still ran a 38.3, which was better then most first runs (minus pros). Listen to it, You don't even here tire scuffing except when I overdrive it into the corners on the second lap. She is a bit soft of the shock settings. No tuning, Nothing, just as I drove it in off the street. Long story short I am not even close to the edge yet.The score boards are posted at Pro Touring. Almost every combination was there. Other then the Pros I was right there with all the other cars that had 3 and 4 shots at the track. And Frank is no autocross driver!

Now back to Tony's thread.
