Amen to that, Tony is a very good promoter, and and I am sure he doesn't make moves without thinking them out. We all have a finite amount of money to spend racing, granted some of us have a larger finite amount of money to work with.

I think the shock people are getting a bad rap. Without a doubt shocks are very important in making a race car fast. Most of us spend more time in the turns than on the straightaways so it only makes sense to make our cars fast as we can in the turns. In racing we don't have cutting edge innovations, we only have warmed up ideas that were used in the past and are brought back to sell to new racers. Shock technology is in fact cutting edge, we up date every year with the same old shocks we have raced on for years. There will always be racers that want to buy a trick piece. How about the DriBar for instance. Racers can decide on their own what is good and what is Hype, that should not be the job of a race promoter, if it works the racer should use it.
