I really felt like the 1.4x3 very the best of both worlds. Post your entire setup, I am wondering if you did something vastly different with roll centers and camber gain.
Speaking solely of the shocks the shocks themselves the 1.7's have proven to be better at my track regardless of the layout. I tested extensively back to back to back to back flip flopping between the 1.6 and 1.7 when they first came out. 1.7 won every time.
Now after my last test of the 3x1.4 vs 1.7 I kept everything else the same... 1.7 were instantly better in every way and it showed on the clock.
Due to the amount of Pm's I got I will post my setup on here.
I am using A hubs, again after back to back testing on this layout, they were a tick faster but also much easier to drive. In my experience the key to A hub vs. C hub debate is this: if your track has elevation changes/ off cambers/ banked turns... The A hubs are most usually better. If your track is flat, C hubs all day!
