I can't wait for those parts to be released. It will make a dialed car more dialed

Also Hiro, do you ever play with the screws on the top deck for more or less traction gain. I was testing some combos yesterday and it seems to make quite a difference.

Hi Littlealex,

what we found from the testing with six hole piston was that they don't heat up the tires as much as 3 hole pistons. Also, now we can use a lot softer oil but still have good pack. That means car moves quick at the slow speed but at higher speed (faster input), it stiffen up and hold it really well.

We still need to do more testing but i have a feeling it will be a good setup for hot outdoor race condition.

Hi Eric, how are you?

Yes i have tried many different for the top deck screws but eventually i found that it's always better with all screws tighten with stock 2.0mm top deck. I think it's even better to use with concave washers for those four screws in the very back side on the top deck.

However with the new 2.5mm top deck, we sometimes use less screws on the top deck but still full screws tighten is used most of the time.

Hope it helps.
