They are more popular in other forms of motorsports. Is there any shock builders name on them as far as who set them up for a 250R?

Those would be good shocks for someone wanting to get into flat track. If I had the cash Id get them for my 86' chassis. Not to hijack,but is that a 67-72 GM truck lurking in the back ground?

Nice,looks like a good start. Hard to find them here in Illinois without a ton of rust. 72' Gmc 3/4 was what I learned to drive a stick with. 4spd,granny lo,4:56 gears and an inline 6cyl,take off in 2nd and go! Lol
