I use saddle now, but I always have the feeling that the car is too heavy. I'm thinking of getting at least a shorty to try, but before investment I would like to have some thoughts and opinions from you guys if it's worth the extra cost. Thanks.
Absolutely agree, but if you do try the switch I would be mindful of springs and oil weights. I just made the move from stock to mod and have tested both ways. The saddles calm down the car enough for me to be more consistent. With the shorty action and reaction is just too fast for me right now. On our track, the best drivers are running shorties.
