Re: [DMCForum] DMCH performance suspension

[Marc Levy <malevy_nj@xxxxxxxxx>]

The guy who spoke in Ireland (Martin remembers his
name) said that the ride hight was never changed.  The
way it shipped stock was the way it was designed.

Stephen at one point claimed that the stock springs
would "unwind", which is what made the cars not level
and too high.  (I dont know if he was kidding or not!)

Why does it matter?  What is more important is what
setup will make the car handle best NOW. (One would
think, that is how "John intended")   I wish I could
answer that question.  :)
