As I look closer at the pictures, I see a lot of similarities to the SpeedMerchant Rev.4. Look at the change in the dampener tubes. They are angled slightly forward just like the SM Rev.4. I also like the position of the tweak springs, they are moved outward for a finer adjustability. They are not quite as far out as I would like to see though. I also like the predrilled center holes in the bottom plate and front of the chassis. That will make it easier to center up the weight and measure width from center. I am also noticing that there are not any balls on the bottom pod plate for the tweak springs to rest on. It looks like there is less distance between the tweak plates and the chassis. I’m going to guess that they are 0.250” closer to the chassis. This would also effect the angle of the dampener tubes. I’m not seeing much different in the front end except the center brace. Turn over a Rev.4 and look at the number of screw holes in the back end of the chassis. Could the additional screw holes in the CRC weaken this area of the chassis?
