Thanks in advance.

Also, watch for Team Trinity/Magic at the winter nats... we have a great US team for this year with myself, Mike Blackstock, Mike Dumas and Trinitys Chad Phillips. Should be a great year for the G4S after a very succesful 2006.
Hi Bobby

This the chart for Mugen springs

Purple 1.6mm front springs 4 coils = 25 lbs
Purple 1.6mm rear springs 5 coils = 21 lbs

Light blue 1.7mm fronts springs 4 coils = 31 lbs
Light blue 1.7mm rear springs 5 coils = 27 lbs

Dark Blue 1.75mm front springs 4 coils = 32 lbs
Dark blue 1.1.75 mm rear springs 5 coils= 27 lbs

This is the chart for TM's springs

tm gray 1.9mm 52.0 lb/in
tm orange 1.8mm 41.5 lb/in
tm blue 1.7mm 31.0 lb/in
tm aqua 1.6mm 26.0 lb/in
tm silver kit stock 26.0 lb/in
tm purple 1.5mm 20.0 lb/in
tm pink 1.4mm 17.0 lb/in
tm fuccia 1.3mm 13.5 lb/in
tm green 1.2mm 11.0 lb/in

I'm currently using Mugen's MTX-4 complete shock assemblies (4 front ones, which are the same lenght as TM's. Rear MTX-4's are longer), and I've found they give me a more consistant operation throught a hole day of racing over Tm's stock shocks.

Good luck at the Winternats for you and the whole team......
