There no need to get other shocks, we swap tamiya and schumie shocks with no change in lap times. The Tamiyas are usually cheaper but the HPI are equally nice. I still like the Schumacher shocks with Losi nitride shafts and pistons best.

We run the HPI plastic ball in our Tamiya shock and they are a straight swap, just cut off the thick flanged end.

Nope, he was using a proto Schu chassis. The BMi-2 chassis and top deck would be a good substitute though.

What is it with Schumacher !
There is no info on internal gear ratio in the manual for SST Sport.
And their website such big time, I cant get any info there either.

Can anyone tell me what the internal gear ratio is for Schumacher SST Sport, so I can calculate the bloody gearing.
