On the topic of the shocks. I personally prefer the Mi3 shocks by far. When AdrianM did his build of the Mi3, he said 'just fill them and close them, thats it' and I had to do a double take. He said to just wait and see when the car came out.
Sure enough I had never seen shocks build up that easy and that smooth. I've always heard how great the TRF shocks were. I've used them on my TC before, and I use them on my mini now(just to stay TCS legal), but I've never been all that impressed with them. In fact, when I had them on my last TC, I replaced them with Losi's JRX-S shocks.
When I think of shock quality and ease of use, for me it goes like this.
Schumacher Mi3 shocks
Team Losi JRX-S shocks
Tamiya TRF shocks
But feelings about the best shocks vary from pit space to pit space. Schumacher should try making the Mi3 shocks in a more nuetral color just to see how many they could sell to other racers as a replacement for other companies shocks.
One thing I am sure of though, is none of these are giving me .5 sec a lap advantage!
