Ground Control coilover sleeves for MCS???

Does anyone know if GroundControl makes/sells their coilover sleeve for the MCS? I tried searching and didn't find much information on the topic. A google search didn't turn up much either. Thanks in advance for your help.

I've called a few time and all I get is their voicemail and it was full. Try calling but they seem hard to get a hold of.

I believe Erik at http://edgemotorworks.com was in the process of developing a coilover for the MCS. Check with him he is a NAM site sponsor.

I don't beleive ground control was interested in bringing a kit to market. Erik was going to develop one in his shop using their components. Ground crontrol can be reached at 530-677-8600. Erik can be reached at 925-479-0797.

Let us know what you find out in a post. I'm interested in the ground control stuff but if they don't believe theres enough interest I find it hard to believe.
Being from the East coast I don't know much about Edgeworks.

This is very confusing. Not many months ago they had a kit for MINI listed for sale on their website! There are at least a couple old NAM threads on the subject. Come to think of it though, I don't remember anyone who posted claiming to have actually bought/used the kit....
