i've used them on the street for years in various vehicles. no problem at all. they feel different. i like the way they feel. touch the gas and the front end comes up like a boat. cool. all ahead flank!
for what is the good life if not doing things thoughtfully?

If you got a nice set of adjustables you could have
the best of both worlds... dial them up for cornering
and soft for track

thanks for the response guys,now what front shocks to buy,summit adj,are they junk,ce-or lakewood,lots of choices??? 
IMO, try the Calvert shocks if you are on a budget. Ive got a set and they separate very easily, way quicker and easier than CE's.
By the way I use the Calverts on the street and they are fine. I also used the CE's on the street since 90 or 91, no problems with them either.

Summit and CE shocks are too stiff. They could be $10 and the Calverts would still be a better deal. Calverts are budget compared to real race shocks like Hal, Afco, Strange etc.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
