Is that what they are for though? Bumpy tracks? If so, you are correct, most of the tracks i run on are taken care of and smooth for the most part.. I run at CCRC, The Factory and Batavia right now, i can't stop racing at Batavia for some reason, it's the closest track to me plus i like the atmosphere, high bite track and track layout.. I really want to get back up to Matts since he changed it..
Check out the bottom of page 9:

"Rear Dogbones:
An optional rear axle and dog bone set (TLR342002) is available for the Team Losi Racing 8IGHT 3.0 buggy. The dog bones have less mechanical bind than the standard CVA type driveshaft that comes stock on the 8IGHT 3.0. The decrease in mechanical bind allows the car to handle bumps better, but will offer less rear support. The CVAs will produce more lock-up and forward traction, but the dog bones work best when the track is really rough."
