The problem with any twin-tube design is they will get hot and loose performance over a session. Depending on what you are using the car for of course but I run Nitrons and have been very very happy with them. They are more expensive than the Spax but they offer far superiour performance imho.

To be fair, a lightweight Radical won't punish a twin tube as hard as a heavy endurance racer so any deficiencies probably wouldn't be highlighted.

However although i know of trackspax i don't actually know anyone who has them fitted, so have no idea how they perform. Maybe there lies your answer .. go with something proven .. the Nitrons are certainly a pukka performance damper worthy of their list price.

I run the single way adjustable "sport" ones. But give them a ring and they do what ever you want

Try the people at AVO as they do everything from the bog standard stuff that Radical spec to double adjustable remote res stuff.
