Thanks for the great pictures :)

All my pictures sucked this time, so sorry. I have nothing good to share of other people's cars. There was so little time between runs. I couldn't really get anything done.

Here's my videos. Run 5, about 45 seconds in is where the hit that ended my day came.

And finally, Run 5. Forget Putfile, POS.

Needless to say, I'm in the market for another strut or maybe a different suspension setup. If anyone has some ideas of reasonably priced stuff, I would like to hear about it. I'm thinking of several different options at this point, from just trying to find a used OEM strut to something moderately strong for gravel.

Hotbits are pretty reasonable for this kind of thing, but I'd avoid the top mounts (I blow at least a couple bearings a year) and just use group N tops with spacers. Beyond that, AGXs maybe with stiffer but not shorter springs would probably be alright for RX, but they're no less likely to bend like that than stock.
