Default A couple of questions

I am trying to understand the possible adjustments for the front end on my X1. I have watched the the youtube vids from rc F1 blog guy and that has helped. I am messing around with front droop and from what I can see there seems to be and inherent amount of droop in the front upright area. Just wondering what the benefits/drawbacks are to preload the spring.

I ran the car for the first time last week at a TCS race. I found out that I like to break the C5 plate. Seems the original one lasted longer than the replacements. The original looks like a fiber reinforced piece, the others look to be plastic only. Just wondering what other peoples findings have been. Is it helpful to get the aluminum upgrade parts for the motor pod area? better durability?

The car is box stock except for the adjustable uprights. Tamiya (54357)
