VRP Cams for a 55k

I have a set of cams for sale. They were bought new and installed around 10k miles ago. Going back to stock as my track days are over and they are a little too lumpy for me.
$2k.

Surprised that nobody replied to this. Did you get any PMs? How did they feel, sound and drive. I noticed quite a few people are selling or want to sell theirs including Sunir, Beauphus (I bought his last week), Bassn07 and Blackbenzz. What's the deal? Is there something we don't know? Did they cause some motors to blow up or make them impossible as a daily driver?

I don't know about other peoples experiences. I can assure you my motor is still intact and if it wasn't, I wouldn't sell them and you'd all know about it. These are lumpy cams and require a custom tune.

Guess so. I'm open to reasonable offers but I'm in no rush to sell them.
