The FRF Shock Shootout! All pre event details and discussion here

[Aaron]

Also if I'm around I'd love to help out in any way I could.

I'd let you barrow my stockers but I feel they are worn out making them useless for this test. But I would like to see if Mictouch would rebuild them for me and give them his hot tune while he's at it. I'll need back up shocks while my icons are out for service in the future. I'd love to see how modded stockers would add up in the mix.

 

[Raptizzle]

I'll put up my oem front shocks (19K miles). Sending you a PM J.

 

[BigJ]

My initial test procedure ideas are up. Gimme your thoughts.

 

[pirate air]

Would be cool to fix a three axis accelerometer to a seat bolt or something rigid inside the body to collect data on the impacts/vibrations/accel amounts during the test drives of each shock. Put it in a graph to see which ones had the least amount of spikes.

"Stuff we need" section added and filled out.

 

[Hockster]

I suggest getting Offroad warehouse involved. Ill make the call. They sell all of these shocks and have shops.

I have 2 gopros too.

Interesting idea! How dependent do you think that's going to be on the driver though, verses the shock performance itself? Seems like the numbers will be off by a lot even if the driver's only off by a few mph over the same obstacle?

Great, thank you ICON!! I've marked you down as supplying two different sets. Please advise when you have links to your website and pics up for the 2.5s, and I'll add that info to the first post.
