    The yellows are AWESOME shocks for us Honda guys, and great shocks over all. I wanted the yellows, but the red's kinda got dropped in my lap, not I gotta find some fronts.

    Next spring I will be going to Brainerd ITL Raceway with Porsche, Audi, and Corvette clubs. I got a hookup on track time through some guys at work. Should have some pretty intresting videos in about 6 or 7 months. I just gotta get my car more track worthy.

    I say screw the straight line crap, its boring. Give me a sweeping corner that you take at 80, now I am having fun.

    I couldnt agree with you more about the Turbo comment, at least its true in the 1/4 mile and on the freeways. Get some tires, and suspention along with some performance upgrades and hondas can be good track cars provided a good driver is there to throw it around the corners.

    sell the reds, put that towards the yellows.

    i'm running ground controls with koni yellows. haven't gotten the chance to corner weight it yet, but having the capability to adjust the damping (actually, the rebound) is pretty neat to have.
    i was there.. debating between the AGX, the Reds, and the Yellows, with Teins or Illuminas as an offshoot. Yellows are externally adjustable and you can later have them revalved for higher rates and for the compression stroke by Koni if you get serious with them.

    Is that you in your avatar? Were you in the Minneapolis area a week or so ago? I recognize you for some reason.

    I want to get the reds in for now, the shocks are shot and as you know our winters can bring some slippery conditions. I would rather have good shocks now than great shocks later. This is my DD.

    The ground controlls and Koni yellows are what I am looking to get before track season. Its either that or re-valved bilstiens and H&R springs. We will see.
