The other day I had a great conversation with Ted at QRP. I just wanted to share what a great source of information and what a great guy he is.
When I start my build, he will DEFINITELY be getting business from me.
Thanks, Ted, for taking the time to talk to me. There was some stuff that I thought I knew, that you confirmed, and some stuff that I thought I knew, that you confirmed that I didn't know.
I just thought this was worth sharing.

Hey Taz, enjoyed our conversation too. Very interested in your project, sounds very ambitious & rewarding. Keep me posted on your progress.
What we have learned being in the Automotive & Racing industry for 40 years has it's benefits.
The experience that we we learn on the racetrack helps us develop better products.
Here is a excellent recap on last months 25hrs of Thunderhill.

MikesPMS from the other forum used the front and rear sway bars from the donor corvette. He fabbed up some mounting plates that attach the the GTM chassis in the correct position to use the donor parts. I've installed his brackets and the corvette sway bars, front and rear, on my GTM, along with Ted's coilover kit (Genesis). It rides very well.

I wish I could tell you, but I don't have any experience in the car with high g cornering just yet. Wish I had! I am using Ted's rear shock mount as well.
So in the spirit of the OP, Ted knows his stuff and sells great products. As I already said, I'm using QRP's Genesis shock/coilover package, their rear shock mounts, their mirror switch, Crash's heater bypass kit, and probably one or two other items that slip my mind (probably because it's well below freezing out). So thanks QRP for all the help!
