    when building a drag car or a road race machine, ride quality is of no concern to me. Just wondering though have you tried a set and felt a difference?

    lol!!!- I'm not the guy to ask about ride quality bro- my car had open headers with a blower and a big cam, air shocks, stiff sidewall slicks, zero carpet or sound deadener and a plastic racing seat looong before the solid bushings it has now. lol :bananaman

    I would happily trade any amount of comfort or realistic safety for 2 lengths at the next stoplight. :)

    Last time I was down an alley in a trench coat I was told that I was too close to the schoolyard and I should take my bag of candy and go home.
