electric/nitro suspension
 
whats up guys :smile:

so i came across my electric cars and then went to fix my nitro

and so i was wondering why is the suspension so much more angled (angle of the shock and spring) then an electric car :confused:

You'll notice the camber links are angled much more as well (especially in the rear). It has to do with the major weight difference between the two cars and the difference in centers of gravity (cg's). Gas cars have much higher cg's than electric cars and need suspensions with different roll centers to accomodate it.

That's my educated guess....
