SportsCar Magazine

I don't know how many of you compete in SCCA, but I just paid my membership about 2 months ago, and got a magazine in the mail about 3 weeks ago. I never browsed through it until today. Someone named Mike B. from Spanish Lake, CO and his 82 rx-7 are in a feature of RallyCross.

Also, looking in the back, in the classified stuff, there is a website for "1st Gen Racing Suspensions". GForceEngineering.net is the name of it - I've never heard of it.

Just thought I'd share!

G Force is the maker of the Tri-Link and is the most known first gen rear suspention mod. I have one on my car.

This was my first time hearing about them. How are their components?

Some people complain about their noise due to the hiem joints. I don't find it too annoying--but then my car is not a daily driver.

I think most guys have been going with Respeed over Gforce for the last couple of years. Mostly due to Billy's involvement in the forums, and his ability/willingness to build what we ask for.

Gforce has been around for a long time though. They occasionally race in the Detroit area, so I'm hoping to compete against them directly at some point this year. Respeed Vs. Gforce ftw!
