Default Working On New Dampers For 996 -- Would Anyone Like To Test?

Am working on new 4-way adjustable high performance struts and rear shocks for Type 996. If anyone on the East Coast (preferably in New Jersey, New York or Pennsylvania) has a GT3 and would like to participate in testing, please contact me.

Thanks.

Are they made of Carbon fiber? If not, it wouldn't be worth the drive.

Because of racing regulations (ACO, ALMS, FIA GT, Grand Am), they cannot be made of carbon fiber.

Sorry, just ordered a set of Motons. You'd have to really make it worth my while.

Ed:

Just thought it might be interesting for someone -- it's not a paid opportunity. Enjoy the Motons -- are they 2, 3 or 4 way adjustable -- if more than two (i.e., compression and rebound) way, how many compression versus how many rebound adjustments?
