I just found out that BC also has a rubber bushing option vs. the pillow ball upper mounts. This should help some of the high freq noise I have seen as lower speeds and I will be testing them as soon as I have received them. Still trying to get some good vids, so stay tuned. I had a busy wekk last week and the snow storms did not help much But its nice out today, so should be good.

Yes.. that rubber bushing option will give you back that "Lexus" feel so to speak..

Also what kind of spring rates are you testing??

All the research I have done shows you should be in the 12kg for the fronts and 7kg for the rears...

Joe, the intial rates are 14K front and 10K rear and if I go past 20 clicks its pretty soft.

In the 6-15 clicks front you get a good range of performance, I would like to have more of a damping range since there are 30 clicks after all.

The pillow balls I have found on colder days will make noise, but nearly no noise on a warmer day over 60 degrees. I think people would appreciate the setup I have now with the rubber upper mounts.

So I will most likely offer two configs, one for track and one for supersport if you will.

Here is a Vid from yesterday for you to gauge the ride and handling. A lot of traffic in the canyon, but still fun. I extended the vid to show regular road ride performance, its a little tough to perceive with the fisheye, but you get an idea. The camera is mounted right over the front wheel on the fender.

Awsome vid! That looks like a fun place to drive. Is there a significant difference from stock?...

I would say night an day on the stiffer settings. Even on the softer settings the car seems more comfy...so an EDFC would be great with this setup.
