Farrigno they are for the rear definitely a good investment. hopefully with some more testing I will get them dialed in.

John very pleased with the shocks. Still need to do more testing to get the setup right. Hard to do much testing during a race. The new track prep is hard to get a handle on on drag radials slicks seem to love it.
