Love It! I wish I had some good pics of me on the track. Here I am at Lime Rock Park. Can you spot the VR 8?

To be honest, I got the MS struts at half price brand new from a friend. I really did not need to swap out the stockers, but they had 40K miles on them so I said why not. The ride is fairly the same in either case.
