I added about 4-5mm of fuel tubing to counter this.
AAAAH....gotcha. I understand. Sorry, the track I run on has all flat corners, and the only jump that is RIGHT after a corner is a VERY steep jump that if you hit it too fast, you overshoot the next corner, and usually end up pogoing on your front bumper...not having the fortune to run on other style tracks, I had tunnel vision.
Thanks for describing that situation...I see how you could end up with this "overcompression" of a suspension arm in a real world scenario now.
