Default Quadshock options???

I was wondering if there was any aftermarket Quadshock options for the 2V Gt's like mine? Something maybe solid or better for launching? I haven't looked around much at all.

Get some good aftermarket upper and lower control arms and trash the quadshocks.

I took them off and put on some upper and lower CA's on and left them off. I went to the track twice and both times I couldn't heat my tries up cause of bad wheel hopping. I put them back on see if that cures the problem. What do you guys think is causing the bad wheel hoppin?????

From my experience with my strange 10ways, if your shocks are too loose it will cause it to hop. Maybe you have a bad shock.
edit: What kind of uca/lca did you install?

+1 on the uca/lca.

definately consider getting some new adjustable shocks before the extra quadshocks.

Go git yourself some UPR poly/spherical LCA's/UCA's and will be able to forgo the quads as mentioned. Will be a bit more NVH than poly/poly ones, but worth it.
