Go For it!
If You try it then You will know. If you dont try it, you would assume of the conclusion which would be making an ass out of u and me
I thought it made a big difference to the car, and I liked the difference it made, Try it, and if you dont like it then don't do it again. simple

Gotta remember though, before I came to Schumacher I was a TRF driver, so I do have a good idea of how the shocks feel and the differences I listed on the last page are how they get that feel..

hi,
this is a good question. prior to the DHI CUP we (schuey uk) did a lot of playing with chassis. moving the cells forward, backwards in out etc. the guys finally decided on a 5 cells chassis with the cell positioned same as the 6 cell in the front, but 2mm further out away from the centre (if that makes sense) all our cars looked pretty good with this setup, so off we went to the dhi with our new chassis. to find when we got there that jonas andersson runs the 6 cell chassis with the cells at the rear, his car looked good also. so i think its more personal preferance than if one is faster than the other. i know this doesnt answer your question at all and has confused you even more, lol.....sorry

Marocs/Johnny/Kirby/PW: this is all great info guys! also aware that at the end it will be a "feel" kind of thing in the end and knowing what one position does over the other is a big help. Cant wait to start testing next weekend with this set up. 
big thanks!
Kirby: hope you can make it to TITC. would be good to have a fellow shuie guy there to work out set ups with. as it is there's only one guy listed with an mi3 from OZ. thanks for the tip! and see you there if ever ... suggest you email that guy again. I know for a fact that one of the guys listed in the entry list is surely not going to go (Jason dela Cruz) as somthing came up and he will have to beg off. If you want, maybe i can ask my buddy jason to email the guy at TITC to advise him of his pull out and if you want to take the slot. maybe you can email me you addy so he can copy (cc) you in the email. lemme know!
PW: this helps alot! will keep that in mind when i do testing. btw, the pic below ... is that your reedy car? just checking since i have the set up as a baseline. also, AdriaM mentioned you had some new killer mod/asphalt set up ... care to share? an email would be great ([email protected]) ... thanks again for the help!

Some resources for you guys regarding setups
For the MI3 - Setup sheets MI3, that seems to include setups from Schumacher, for you on previous pages and others places.
For cars prior to the MI3 such as MI2, MI2EC - http://www.petitrc.com/view_news.php?id=4622, scroll down a bit, 2/3 of the bottom

Foam car is almost done minus some 70wt front shock oil that I had to order this morning... wasn't prepared for anything over 50wt.
