Mk1 H&R RACE Springs

[vwnuts@yahoo.com (Anthony Pelletier)]

I spoke to Mike Potter a few months ago about H & R
race springs & at that time H&R had never imported MKI
race springs to the us.  He said it would be at least
6 weeks until the next container arrived from germany
and they weren't sure if they would have them or not.
