$175 a set.
What do you get? 4 delrin offset bushings, steel sleeves, machine screws, instructions, and about .5 more camber than you have right now. And all ESP legal if you happen to care about rules. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Not cheap, because they weren't easy to get made and that costs money (especially in limited quantities). I've got 16 sets total. Some are already sold or "reserved" by customers I know will be buying them. I figure I have 10 sets up for grabs right now, and if there is a need, I'll make more. |

I know they aren't cheap for 4 bushings, sleeves and some machine screws. But they are made in very small runs, and we have to order the materials in small batches and have the CNC machines stopped to download the program (not to mention the setting up of the program in the first place). I also felt it was the correct thing to do to pay Phil Knowles, who designed them a royalty of sorts. He didn't have to give me the design at all, he could have kept the whole thing to himself but didn't. And I feel that deserves something. QUOTE (cccbock @ Feb 15 2007, 01:07 PM) QUOTE (Sam Strano @ Feb 13 2007, 01:42 PM) Not close, don't have anyone even on a waiting list at this time. I'm willing to have more made, but I need enough folks to buy them. What someone needs to do it get with some of these NASA time trial guys that save points with these vs. control arms, and the CMC types that can use them to gain camber. I've tapped out the ESP market I think, and I'm not on any NASA forums... But if someone were to make it public we make these bushings and how they'd benefit certain classes, you might be able to drum up enough people for another run. Sam, was Sean able to get another set, I know he let his backup set go for me, so he might be "on the list" so to speak. Bock Yep, I managed to get him a set that was not taken..... but good thinking. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
