3-link vs Tri 4-bar
Just wanted to let you guys know that we finally did our test session for Super Chevy Magazine. Using Matt's 69 Camaro with our rear subframe that has BOTH 3-link and Tri 4-bar brackets we did back to back tests. Both suspensions were tested on the skidpad and the slalom course.
Super Chevy is in the process of finishing the story and we had a Autostream shoot the test (got some great shots of the suspension working) and it should be ready to post very soon!
We've been wanting to do this for a long time and it was great to finally get the chance to do it before Del Mar. I know it's a bit of a teazer for now, but I think you guys will really like the upcoming story and accompanying video.

I just got the pre press on the Super Chevy August issue (Street date in about 6 weeks) and the suspension story is in there. I cannot wait to share the results.
AME are on top of their game right now. All this trick stuff is pushing them straight to the head of the class!

Both 3-link and Tri-4-link brackets on the subframe with a Watts--sounds UNFAIR!

Somewhat off topic, but ........... Craig - how is your new facility coming along. I can't remember the time line and frankly, I tend to lose track of time anyway (I'm getting old!)
I'm looking forward to this story and all of the hush, hush new stuff you guys are working on.Brandon Wiedeman
