Yeah, that sounds really sweet. Remind us next year and I guarantee Tag will have us road-tripping over there.

As far as the Maryland race, check under the 'Maryland Racer' forum here on Tech. There should be an entry form there as well.

Nice article. And I always thought that Serpent en Xray were using the same oil (same manufacturer). So now you have the info for filling your shocks according to a setup sheet, but with your brand of oil.

I'm glad it finally said something on that link.....I knew there was no way Shock Oil didn't stay perfectly consistent in weather changes!!

LOSI's says they'll never change viscosity as the weather changes....but there's no way the oil is the same on a 100* day and a 30* day!!

That article is pretty sweet!
