Short answer: NO! Anything from Stone Racing isn't worth a handful of monkey poo.

Long answer: Just search for "Stone Racing" or "SSAutochrome" and you'll learn more than you ever wanted to about the crap products they sell. Heed the warnings or you'll have to do it all over again anyway and then we'll flame you for it when you eventually whine about it.


Edit: You've been a member of H-T for over a year and you haven't seen the eleventy billion posts already made about them? What the hell is wrong with you? Are you blind or retarded or something?
