    Good information Keith, thanks.

    All of these examples must have been extreme suspension drops. Are these examples of street or track cars?

    Any feel on where the line gets crossed on the amount of drop where these problems start showing up?

    Thanks!

    It can occur even with stock springs, one gentleman had his line replaced four times, on stock springs; but yes, the R56s with contact I'm aware of have seen track or autocross.
