Really well. To me the car feels more nimble (probably due to a stiffer spring, running HPI's Silver) and rolls more naturally. The setup window feels larger. I don't have to try (or drive) as hard to make the same lap times and it is faster in mid to low grip. Even in high grip asphalt the car feels better, once again, to me.
I've not tested on carpet, nor will I if I can help it.
If anyone wants a setup PM me and I'll do my best to help out.

Is there going to be any major changes or just small changes to the car?

brokin xray!
hi guys, to me it sounds like Jim is going shopping for the new xray in the next few weeks, welcome back!. i am though intrigued by the want of a lot of people for a return to regular length shocks, what is the benefit of either one? and does it really make a big difference? maybe i just do not know better.

(but unlike previously, will hang onto my current old Xrays... just in case)
I went to long shocks on my '14(raceberry towers & T-shox). I run on a very bumpy track. The long shocks and change in center of gravity gave me feel I like. The car wasn't faster but it was more consistent over 6 minutes run for me. We have guys here that run the short socks and like them also. For me it just a tuning tool.

hi guys, everywhere i look at the moment around me people are buying ARC, i like you am impatiently waiting to see what happens with the next Xray but if it does not grab me, like you i wont pull the trigger but will instead keep thrashing my fleet of t4 13's, so Jim it looks like we have a lot in common, especially the getting older bit.
