I had no idea the Peterson White Lightning Race team switched over to those? When the took the car apart at the shop a couple of years ago they were using SACHS...
I will tell you one thing is for sure... Nobody sets up a Moton package (or a race car for that matter) like Kent Moore of Premier Sportscar Service. I don't know if you know this, but he was crew chief for Petersen White Lightning for years, and won Le Mans 3 times. If you know him, you should get his input on what settings he uses for different tracks. He swears by the Motons, but I suspect it is because of Moton's customer service and everyone's less than stellar relationship with a certain JRZ distributor in Northern California.

Hey Tyson, I think I met him... I'm pretty sure I watched him set their car up at the shop one time. I know what you mean about the customer service. Moton USA is certainly more in tune with that part of the experience.

You're probably too low and bottomming that shock on every bump. That's some serious pounding.

I'm interested in seeing how you can do a stealth, yet accessible remote canister install with the Motons.

It is but I have to say the compliance is great on those roads and I don't feel it's too stiff at all
