I would like to take the time to formally offer my services as TOP's official durability tester. I'm currently EB Mods official durability tester....

Do you guys recommend sealing the edges of carbon fibre chassis,shock tower, top deck? Just concern that it might change the flex/handling of the chassis if I do.
