    92s vs 90s up front

    We've always run 92s but it seems everybody else is running 90s these days. How much difference is there really in feel and, more importantly, is there anything really there on the stop watch.

    Dual stage RF

    For a Gen-X car, I'm being told that the Genesis shock is the only way to go with this.

    What is the magic in the Genesis shock and why can't it be done with another brand with the correct valving?

    When is the right time to use the 14" bottom right bar versus the 16"?

    I guess our intent in going to the softer RF is to get the car upon the LR more by pinning the RF.

    Then maybe I don't want to go to a softer RF. I don't want to give up more forward drive given that we're already struggling in that category.
