JR,will the dampening system be something the end user can easily retrofit to their Six Shooter? I have a Six Shooter I have yet to install,for fear of having rattle or buzz and not wanting to take the console apart twice.Any idea when it will be available?

I believe that some are misunderstanding, the six shooter was a 2 year project and, by our standards, is still in progress because we do not settle for anything less than absolute perfection with any and all of our products and services. For the track it is perfect, and any of the guys that have used it there will agree with that statement. However, when you take something that is designed for performance driving, moreover track conditions, you do not desire comfort over precision or reliability. Again, that does not mean that it should feel like the old rock-crusher "a boat paddle in a bucket of nuts" but it should not make your car a daunting chore to drive either. That is why we are developing a dampening system for the guys who have this complaint, and for the guys who do not track their cars often or just want to safeguard against the noise.
Thanks,
JR
Be sure to give us a big post when that damper is ready and I will place an order.

Yes, it will be something straight forward,user friendly and easy to fit for the "do-it-yourself" customers. As far as an ETA I fdont have any further info for you guys right, other than to say we hope to have it out by th end of the spring.
