Awesomatix has obviously stumbled onto something that gives the car an advantage in certain scenarios.

This is what I expect from car designers. Kudos to them for acknowledging that someone has built a better mousetrap and trying to address it.
I agree with the fact they are trying something else..
A great car manufactuer should provide there customer different options to try to suit there driving style.
At my two tracks... The Awesome guys are always trying different things.
Cutting top decks, cutting chassis, after market chassis, narrow hubs,x brand internals in the diffs.
Thats great... They are looking for that edge, that we all look for.I dont think its hilarious.
This thread should be about another option xray drivers have.
