I am going to test this this upcoming weekend but until then wondering if any one has tried and if so likes, dislikes? Easy enough to switch back thus it's worth the try. Also wondering with the rear wing being farther being back in this config will provide better flight. Thinking this set up could promote the pendulum effect, however the 16 chassis I believe is 4mm shorter thus maybe beneficial in running this set up. I am to tired thus forgive me if the above makes no sense.
I tried shocks at the rear of shock tower and arms at my local track and didn't notice any difference at all , Im putting them back in front of the arms and shock tower
last thing you want is someone to rear end you and bend your shock shafts
