(pardon me if this is a dumb question)
No dumb questions here. They are CSI designed shock pistons.

I will do my best to keep an eye on the forum. Can't wait to hear your feedback.

Let's see now, what kind of story can I come up with on how the shock pistons are made. Going to have to think about that one a while.

Believe it or not, but we tested Ed. More importantly, CSI has an awesome group of guys that know a thing or two about shocks.

I know, but I have to come up with one and save it for just the right time so I can top the heater story.

Look forward to giving the pistons a try. If I can get some test time on a track I would like to have them at the CBjr, but if not may have to play it by ear and see how much practice we will have since they are building only 1 track this year.

I know Mike got with you and should be sending you something shortly. Our setups are not that different.

Looking forward to trying these out. Love the fact that full size race car technology is making it's way to 1/8th scale! Keep up the great work.

Mike e-mailed detailed info last night. I will get with Garrett and see if there is anything we can do to help you out for the Chili Bowl. I will not make it this year, Josh has a new baby due the first of January.

Thank's Rich... This is just the beginning of bigger and better things to come. Once we get our new web site up and running customers will be able to access info to assist them with any suspension or shock related problems or questions, just like the big boys do it!

Eric, I purchased one of your original engine warmers and can not say enough good things about it. Your knowledge and desire to produce R/C products that actually work the way they are designed to work is awesome. I am a customer for life. Again, looking forward to using the new shock pistons.

Rich

P.S. The tech help should be a huge advantage! looking forward to using that to it's full potential too.
