I have a 2nd...a 5th in a Divisional against some top level talant., a couple of 1st's and a INDEX win on KW's in my BRZ... Can't say it doesn't work well for autox....I think they are fantastic..

KWs are definitely great, but I too am waiting to see what AST, Koni, Bilstein bring to the table. You also have to remember that not everyone autocrossing this car is aiming to win Nats, so the KWs, ASTs, Ohlins, Penskes, etc. may not be the end-all-be-all. I still cannot even decide which class to run with this thing.

There are several FRS/BRZs running in my region, so we can compare notes. Plus, it doesn't hurt that our region regularly has as many/more cars than most divisionals/tour events, so it gives us a nice gauge on where we are...
