i have seen this a lot as well with different brands of cars
i tend to agree you keep changeing cars until you find the one that suits your driving style as you say there is time to gain when your 100% in touch with what the cars doing

For those of you that are running the Tresrey front block-
How many limiters are you running in your front shocks? The Tresrey front block does not have the "wings" so you can not use the droop screw, so you've gotta use the old fashioned method of adding limiters inside your shocks. Jonny5 and I worked on it last night...I left with 4 in each but it still isn't enough.

Which lower shock mount hole are you in? I was pretty sure I put 2mm inside mine (running the Tresrey MOS shocks). I'm middle hole on tower, outside hole in arms and I had to unscrew my shock ends 3 full turns to get the droop needed. Even if I have 4mm inside, it would mean I still had to unscrew my shock ends... at full droop, the "long" part of the arms is about level. Can't see running any less droop unless on super high bite.
I was on the inside hole on the arm middle on the tower. The limiters I installed are the AE thin white one. It just didn't "feel" right. Lots more testing to do.

What up Ray!
So did you not have enough droop, or not enough washers to reduce the droop? I think the droop I have is about perfect for most situations. After I put the Tresery block on, I put my stock shocks back on without any limiters and it was definitely too much droop. Car was definitely not right with that much droop.

Yea way too much shock length. But overall the car runs nice. Zippy and Jonny5 strong armed me to jump from my "other" car. My TrakPower shorty arrived in the mail today. So I'll mount up some new kicks and try again soon.

Since the 210 is a little bit on the heavy side, has anyone tried or considered using the 8 racing CF chassis? Yeah it's a bit expensive, but for those who have the cajones and $$ to get one, how do you like it and what improvements have you noticed when going with a CF chassis? Too bad no local(U.S.) CF manufacturers have a chassis available.
I think Randy is testing out a composite chassis, but it might be months or longer before they hit the stores. It might be worth it just for the $$ savings alone.
