For someone who autocrosses, you know what the margins are in serious competition racing. This suspension is not for people who race locally as a past time hobby, we're talking nationally competitive people and pro series.
I don't see why people are complaining about the price. This will be a serious racing suspension, for... serious racing. Slamming your car to the ground (the reason the far too many people buy coilovers) will make it handle like turds no matter what suspension choice you go with, might as well buy the cheap shit and save money. If you just want better handling or adjustability but don't need the capabilities of a pro, there are already lots of options, and likely to be many more on the way.
Sure, for the vast majority of us out there, this money would be far better spent on driving lessons and track time. If you're going to be racing with pros however, (ie: when a few tenths means the difference between winning and losing) then expect to pony up. Realistically, this suspension is probably only going to be meant for a select few on this forum.
