Not necessarily... Most of the C4's I know that race still run the leaf springs. I don't know of a single C5 that has gone to coilovers and they are the dominant car in just about every class in which they are eligible. Clearly, I'm not talking ALMS of Speed GT, I'm talking grassroots NASA and SCCA racing. If you're building a car for the big leagues you're not asking people on the internet for help. Coil overs have some advantages and some disadvantages. And they are usually severely penaized, so if you were to run them on a track you're most likely pushed into a higher class than a C4 can handle. But I digress...the original question was regarding street use. |
