Use the stock gold up front and sliver rear will work good on most track and then fine turn it from there

iceman 76 Thank you.
I have been using gold and silver but some are talking about soft and super soft as well as yokamo yellow. I'm willing to try anything, I have been using 30w and 35w oil for some time now and have used up to 45w and 50w.
We are still racing carpet rubber but my track lazerspeedway.com opens in May so my Cyclone setup will change back to outdoor, I ran gold and silver springs last year and after trying everything from 12lbs to 25lbs rear and 17lbs to 35lbs front i"m back to stock springs on the carpet.. LOL I cant believe the same springs work everywhere but they seem to LOL

I was hoping to find them for this weekends race but I will settle for the following weeks race if I can even get them. I don't want to do an over seas order just for some frickin' pistons.....Even though I'm a DETRIOT PISTONS fan....(had to throw that in there) Thanks for the info and now the search begins!!!!!

my laptimes were the same as the Orion so it didn't give me anything extra. I'll double check again this weekend when I run them back to back.
