I have them, But i have never seen anyone say they were running them. I have had them for about 8 mos. My car has tons of traction, and remember it is a 357, 11.1 comp.Tric flow stage 2 ported heads,with a custom grind, with the RR, lift is 625/661, and dur.@ .050 is 246/259, so i figure if they give me great traction then they must be alright.They are awesome but pricey. They go for about 550 for the set. I have read about them on racing forums and decided to go with them. Maybe i spent money i did not have to but i tend to go with what i think is best. Kind of like my pistons. I have Diamond Racing Pistons, I have only seen a couple guys on here that say they run those. I have not run this car at track yet. hopefully this fri i can. I have a new dist. gear ordered and i hope it is here on wed. I have found some fresh asphalt which still is not good as a prepped track. But i used my line-loc, got my DR's warm and launched just like i would at the track. I was impressed with the traction i got.

Shameless bump. These control arms are not that rare. I would like to hear good and bad.
