i actually thought it was a pretty cool thing.i wanna try running the silver springs in back and blue up front.it wil initially be soft but exceed the rear tension through its travel.maybe tone it down on entry and tie it down mid corner and exit.im trying some new stuff for a sweeping fast track w/ novak 4.5.im trying to make it as smoothe as possible.i also want to get some tamiya springs.

Sorry there more linear and give the car a more planted feeling.
I did try all the HPI springs before running the X-ray ones.
