Haha, they are what I've been running on the last few local events. I do have a fresh '21 pair for Nationals. May buy a new '22 pair from a former evo owner that'll be at Nats!

It was a gift and I slapped it on. May just swap it off or paint the cusco front brace black since I just do stuff locally.

Im guessing that brace exists because cars in other countries have different bumper supports (I think?). But that doesnt stiffen anything in a stressed load path and adds weight to the worst possible area.

Now if you pulled the bumper beam and that was what supported the bumper instead it might even out. But pulling bumper beam jumps you to XA or XP.

Best of luck to EVERYONE competing at this year's 2022 SCCA Solo Nationals! Looking forward to listening/watching the PRO's this weekend.

How sweet would it be to see an Evo at the top in SM, ASP and STU? Just saying.... LET'S GO!!!!!!

Good luck y'all. I'll be rooting for everyone here and listening to the livestream in between meetings

I am wondering what that is...could it be just a difference between the different shocks? What else?
Maybe the MCS are more digressive? i.e. there's a bigger split between low speed and high speed (i.e. street bumps) depending on what setting you're on.

Revalving my Motonzz - switching to the double digressive pistons from the just-one-way-digressive pistons - made a real difference in street manners.

Congrats to everyone that ran STU. We had 3 Evo's in the trophies! Really fun courses and some great competition from a wide variety of cars. STU is fun. Let's get the win next year!

Thanks! Yes, that's me and I was sitting in 2nd after day 1....Those day 2 struggles though.

I will try to write up my feelings and thoughts at some point this week/weekend. I'm absolutely still trying to recover after the heat/sun!

Also congrats to Dallas yet again taking the SM win! Curious to see how Ryan P. does in ASP right now!
