Most professional racers and racecar builders have found that you can “fine tune” the suspension and set-up components and gain a competitive advantage.
Since a racing car chassis is designed and manufactured by professional builders, the same designs are available to all competitors. Likewise, engines and tires come off production lines from which all racers have the same access. Therefore, professional racers have often gained a performance advantage by using high performance suspension components, such as Hypercoils, Hyperco Composite Leaf Springs, Hyperco/ICP Hydraulic “load centering” Spring Perches, and other Hyperco products such as stainless locker springs, steering wheel release mechanical springs, precision oil pressure pump springs and valve springs.
From Formula Ford to F1 (“Formula One”) and late models to NASCAR racing drivers and teams rely on hypercoils to gain a competitive advantage. This has resulted in race wins and championships in NEXTEL Cup, Formula One, Indianapolis 500, Indy Racing League, Indy Car World Series, USAC Silver Crown, Daytona 500, SCCA Trans-AM, All Japan F-3000, USAC Midget, Japan GTCS, Busch, East Coast Dirt Modified, Daytona 24 Hours, Sebring 12 Hours, Craftsman Super Truck, Stars, UMP, Show Me “100”, F-2000, Le Mans 24 Hours, Monaco Grand Prix, NAMARS Midget, AMA, Formula Atlantic, FIA [...]

For more than 30 years, many professional racers worldwide have been convinced that the best suspension coilsprings are manufactured in Logansport, Indiana, and that the men to talk to are the legendary Jim Fiedler and Kelly Falls.
It all started in 1962, when Colin Chapman brought Jim Clark, Dan Gurney and the Lotus 29 to Indianapolis for the first time. One of the first things that they learned was that road racing suspension springs were in no way suited to the Speedway. Someone introduced Jim Fiedler to Colin Chapman and the rest is history.
There has recently been some confusion, however, about who has been doing what.From 1959 until 1990, Jim Fiedler worked for the Mechanical Spring Division of Rockwell International, based in Logansport. In 1990, Rockwell sold the division to Detroit-based -Matthew Warren Industries. Nothing changed for the racers, except that the telephone receptionist answered for MWI instead of Rockwell. We still got to speak with Jim, and he still sent us perfect springs.
In 1987, Hyperco, in nearby Fort Wayne, had become the major distributor of MWI's racing and highperformance coilsprings. Hyperco renamed the springs 'Hypercoils' (see Indiana Blues, V3114), offered them in precisely matched pairs, powder-coated them a distinctive dark [...]
