Ah yes, I'm familiar with, "Monkey See-Monkey Do" never been a fan of it.

I would think shocks would have more to say in how fast one or the other reacts.

That does sound like a nice ride. I'm new to the sprint world, this is my first year keeping up with things after 30 years in the DLM world. I had originally considered trying to get a "Budget Non-wing Sprint" class started, but then I came across the "Southern States D2" midget tour and it runs all around my house and makes more sense to do that. Since Sprints are mainly 4 bar I thought it better to learn with similar type setups on a 4 bar midget, that and they seem easier to set up. In the next 2 years me and my wife plan to leave Georgia and move to a more sprint friendly state like MO or INDY or TX, maybe even western TN, we'll see.

Thanks.
