Default Motons - Where to buy

Where is the most economical place to buy Motons? Where is the best place to buy them?

Just starting to look into them...

Thanks,

Sorry, Skip, I had to mess with you.

Get 'em from Steve Weiner. He'll be instrumental in making sure you have the correct spring rates for your driving and will help guide you through the set-up landmines. Talk to Todd B, too.

I see that you are not sliding down the slippery slope. You've gone and jumped off of the cliff!

Thanks guys. I will give Steve W. a call.

Larry - doing track days with Mark in Balt., ToddB, and others (who all have Motons) makes it hard to continue to run my 4 year old PSS9s. They've been OK, but I am planning on taking the PCar off of daily driver duty this Spring. Thus the car can become a track only ride...

Thanks,

-Skip

They do work very well. I actually was able to dial out the bump in turn 10! I would not have believed it if you told me though.

My friend has a set for his Cup he will sell. They will fit any 996 Cup or GT3, not sure about other apps though. They are the triple adjustable comp. Not the cheaper Club Sport set.

Sounds like fun Skip!! At least you have everyone else to help you get the car set-up.

I am getting ready to dive into the adjustables myself and feel like I will be starting at the bottom again which will be tough considering the lofty heights I had acheived.

Any hint on Steve W's contact info? I am pulling the trigger now for motons and need to get them on before VIR.

Agreed, the triple adjustables are the ones to get.

Check out www.rennsportsystems.com this is Steve Weiner's shop and he can be contacted at the phone number at the bottom of the first page. He is also an active member of Rennlist, so you could send him a PM. I've talked with him many times in the past and he is a great guy.

With my limited brain power, if I went with triple adjustables, my car would start looking like this:
