I agree. But he pistons don't fit the bore at all. If they made them a little bigger they would ride nice and square. but then people would get emo about friction ect. I couldn't use my yokomo orings which sucks. Too thick. Ill have to keey my eyes peeled for an alternative.
The shocks have exactly the same wobble dispite the changes. I also miss the texture of the old caps. Trying to tighten and thread the new ones is a mess with the overspill you get building shocks.
Bladders seem better than the old ones but very easy to murder with the super sharp threads on cap.
Improvments could still be made. But ill have to see how they perform on track.

Ill be testing mine in modified on practice nights. Only way to really get meaningful track time.
Ill also be building it with the rsd prototype chassis. Gonna save the cf for outoors.
