Dinan to offer race-technology shocks made by JRZ

I was browsing through this month's Roundel and noticed a small blurb about Dinan experimenting with shocks that incorporate 'traditional racing technology.' The manufacturer is JRX in Holland, and they are made to Dinan's specs. It also mentioned that the race inspired shocks will allow rebuilds of the cartridges, infinite valving options, and the possibility of incorporating coilover sleeves in the future.

Who's interested? They are curently running testing on a Dinan 540. Anyone on the west coast over there want to do a little investigation?

This is what I have been wanting to put on my car (JRZ, Motons or Penske). These are nitrogen canister type shocks that can be adjusted from a firm street setting to full race. Wish I was out on the West Coast as I would be happy to be a test mule for Dinan's custom valving.
