Thats what I like about the CSI pistons. If you get to a nice pack point, but feel you don't have the shaft speed necessary (shocks aren't returning to the suspension's base ride height fast enough) you simply move to a more progressive piston and and the pack seems to stay about the same.

So either they have another issue, have old parts still getting into new kits, or it's not fully fixed.

Buggies worked awesome all day and we only had 1 front arm breakage from stuffing it into the face of the landing from a huge 35ft step on/step off feature jump .

Everyone was lovin their EB48's and some of the other drivers that had different manufactures buggies said they were going to switch soon as well ......

I did it on mine a couple days ago but haven't gotten to drive it since sanding. I had a first run kit and have been slightly annoyed by the non centering all along. I must have missed the first time the fix was discussed.
