reminds me of the times where I went crazy trying to get all the slop out of my M03. The chassis is pretty stiff for it's size too. After all that, I came to the conclusion that the minis run best with all that slop
The key seems to be to let the chassis and shocks work together for the surface it is running on. If the chassis reaches its max flex during cornering, the load to the suspension will increase suddenly, and may go beyond the tire's grip. Too soft, and the suspension will not be able to put down the proper load on the tires at the right timing.
