Can anybody tell me how stiff the xx heavy and xxx heavy Fantom brush springs that Schumacher sell for the V2 motors are?

My local club also had a lot of problems with JLap. Not just the ones with the race length though. There were a lot of problems relating to sounds being played at the wrong time or not at all.
