So they were using something like diff-lock then? What were the tube guys using on their tubes? 100K? How heavy were the springs they were using?

I use 20wt on most tracks and if the grip gets real high I may use 40wt but so far I have not found a track with grip that high. However, I race my AE in 17.5 open boost class so maybe a 4.5 puts higher side loads on the chassis. I don't know.
