    OK, reading owns me, but I have seen Dampers priced at $2K plus a corner (not including set up) in my casual travels, so 5k is possible.

    Why would I run Hoosiers on my street car?

    Seriously though, I love pimp shocks on the street. Ironically, I've never had them on any of my race cars. Maybe I was spending all my cash on R6's. Lol! The one thing I'll say about something like Moton/MCS is that they're a great value if you can find them used at the right price. They don't depreciate much beyond the initial purchaser so you can buy them, run them, and then resell them for what you paid.

    I remember , on way to runoffs, asking you what those MCS would cost , new.

    and being completely disgusted. Haha


    when I got into this hobby , koni race shocks seemed like a far off dream.... Way too expensive.....and now I have them on 3 cars
