I actually like the friction shocks, If you think about it all pan cars use friction shocks and they are the fastest cars on carpet, very consistent. my only gripe is lack of collars, eventually i will upgrade them but as of right now the car has the lap record for the class!
This is sort of true to an extent. Part of the reason they are fast is the foam tires and fully adjustable suspension. Almost all modern pan-cars use links and a standard oil filled shock and some kind of torpedo tube.

Still very cool for trying something new and different. With the shorty what were you able to get the weight down to?
