funny how most of the guys in track and competition forum hate on the monoflex and then SCC pit it again the big name coilover and it performs about the same with a much less sticker price.

It's because they hate on any shock that isn't JRZ/Moton/Ohlin/KW. They are all a bunch of lemmings.

i think its more like as long as it doesn't run over $2k is not good lol...

by the way, my flex spring rate is 10k front 12k back, not sure why is different than yours, but i bought mines about 2-3 months ago.

That is because you have the flex and mine are the monoflex...

like I said above there is a very noticable difference between the two from the ride quality and people tend to confuse the two. Actually here in Europe you can only get the monoflex and not the flex anymore.
That is also why your perceptions are different then mine. Your spring rates are correct for the flex version 10 front 12 back... for the monoflex it
