This past Friday night, NASA’s 3rd attempt to launch mission STS-128 was a success. We were lucky enough to gain access to this event and actually had closer seats than even the press. The Discovery Space Shuttle is scheduled to dock with the International Space Station during its 13 day voyage. Here are a few pictures and a video of the launch. Enjoy.
Eibach Sportline is the extreme-performance spring set created for the extreme enthusiast—the one who craves a race-car attitude for maximum street performance—with the lowest possible drop, but with the exceptional ride quality you expect from Eibach.
Engineered with the same care as our Pro-Kit springs, Eibach Sportline springs achieve legendary handling by aggressively lowering your Hyundai’s center of gravity, using our precision— engineered progressive spring rates.

Million Mile Warranty
By radically lowering your car’s center of gravity, our Sportline springs dramatically reduce squat during acceleration, body roll in corners and nosedive under braking. By using our proprietary, progressive spring design, our Sportline springs provide the ultimate balance between high performance, extreme lowering and comfortable ride quality. When combined with today’s wild 18″, 19″ or 20″ wheels and tires, the result is a car that handles just as white-hot as it looks.
