INTRAX SUSPENSION








Most people would have noticed that the Skyline looks a lot lower and gets a much more spectacular drift angle these days?? Well, thanks to INTRAX who fitted the suspension earlier this year the qualities of this great suspension setup are just starting to show up now that the engine problems on the Skyline are more or less solved. Henk Thuis personally helped Joep out by fitting this suspension and giving him some sharp tips on the setup. If ever you heard of Ohlins or WP (White Power) suspension, then you know what kind of background Intrax has. Ohlins started the revolution in rear suspension for Motocross about 30 years ago, and WP did the same for the front suspension with their "upside-down" forks which are still a characteristic of all Motocross machines today!!

The Intrax 4-way setup used by Joep de Kort ( and Rhys Millen!!) allows fine adjustments according to driver wishes or track conditions...

" I have never had so much angle with this car" said Joep.. " Combined with the blocking of the HICAS system, and some weight savings with stripping of the interior, I have more fun each time I push the car to it's limits"..

Besides Intrax, other personal sponsors of Joep de Kort's car are Stickerland Styling Extreme, Action Racing School, Shining Monkey and Pagemasters Internet.
