Anybody using one of these kits? They look to be a good kit for the money. Or any other recommendations for a similar kit with a comparable price to the TVS kit?

Thanks

That was a right foot "issue".

Here's pictures of Troy driving it on the track.

Cool stuff, and I've been watching your Youtube videos.

So Steve, what all do you like best about the TVS kit? And what all have you found that it does better with all your road and track experience that compared to other components and upgrades you have done before that don't do quite as well?

Well, I don't consider myself to have all kinds of road and track experiance. To me that someone that's run competitively with a purpose built racecar. I'm a novice driver.

But I had experience driver Bob Reed drive the car with the new TVS system. He's run pro touring series in SCCA. He is the one driving in the video that was taken at the drivers rear bumper cam. He drove the car before the Hotchkis stuff was put on too. Bob's comments were to get better tires and brakes. The chassis and motor were good to go.

The front torsion bars are the biggest jump when I went to .99" T-bars and added front and rear sway bars.

I did a big overhaul/improvement last summer when I went to a complete TVS system. Most the the improvement I did before were replaced with Hotchkis TVS parts. At that time I did another huge jump in torsion bar size to 1.14". I was really worried about the ride. But the Hotchkis Bilstein shocks made it drive nearly as nice as the .99" t-bars and in many instances better. That probably has to do with the Hotchkis subframe connectors too. This stuff is sort of cumulative.

Steve – Your car looked great on the track last time out! Are you going to get different tires?

Mopork – What part of the steering are you referring to? If you’re referring to its ability to corner well and stick to the road surface (compared to a stock Challenger), that’s from the corrected geometry of our TVS package. Without corrected camber gain, caster, pinion angle, and a sway bar, sticking to the road surface is very challenging…pun intended. It’s not smoke and mirrors or rocket science, it’s suspension engineering and completely attainable by installing our TVS kit.
