Default $10,000 MOTON Coilovers?

I was looking @ www.kingmotorsports.com and saw the moton 4 way coilvers set is $10,100. it says "each" but I think its for the full set.
Is it just me, or do you have to be a moron to buy these for this price?

Still cheaper than tires if you track a lot, and if you like playing with knobs and tweaking things all the time....

So when you getting some? These of got to be the mother load of coilovers. Is it safe to say that Moton is probably the best suspension company out there. Not basing this opinion off mere prices, but just the work and R & D they seem to go through, quality products and feedback. Great customer support etc. etc. BTW, do they participate in F1 or any other professional racing series. I know they are very involved in SCCA and such.

Yes and so do others Ohlins, JRZ, etc.

Moron? No. They are racing coilovers and if you plan to race then $10K is a drop in the bucket.

SOS race car?

You mean show car? I mean Chris is an OK guy, but if he actually races that car I'd be suprised. Try getting him to run a timer on the track.

And no he has the Moton Club sports.
