Odd, I've always found that with a t-bar car or link car, the heavier the dampening the longer it takes the car to center up through switchbacks, making it feel LAZY and unresponsive, I generally tend to run thicker dampening on long sweeping tracks that don't require the car to change direction quickly. The thicker dampening keeps it from rolling over too hard in those long High-G sweepers.
