    The height adjustment collar is 100% independent from the spring perch. I can drop it as little or as much as I want. Yes, I will lower it a good bit. Probably about 1.25" all the way around.

    Wow, just wow. You don't even know what the Nurburgring is? Since when is drifting racing? Ahahahahahahha. Trust me, if you truly know how to race, the LAST thing you want to do is drift around a corner. Ahahahaha.

    That's fine. It's a matter of taste; acquired taste, that is.

    What do you drive?

    not to sound like an ass it has a lot to do with the driver as well... i dont think YOU could touch that time in your porsche...

    granted you have a valid argument with dipshit.... but to say you could get the same time as a seasoned driver, lets be realistic....

    Of course, but you have to have a common ground. Professional driver on the ring is a great judge of a car's overall ability. Has any driver come close to that with his car?

    Yeah, an AE is pretty gay. What's worse is that they have to hide behind a computer to do it. Sad, huh?

    Can a mod do an IP check?
