Title: cushion setup and shock questions
Post by propit21 on 04/17/13 at 9:42am

If you run a track that normally builds a cushion at the top of the track is there things you can do or need to do to make a car work better running on the cushion?

Also how many wcss or 3 link cars are running RF tie down shocks like 4/8, 4/10 or 3/9 shocks. Do leaf cars tie down the RF too?

On shocks, we just have the AFCO package on our car, and I've never changed one from the baseline package.

Don't know about the cushion deal.

On our leafer we often run a tie down shock on RF and an easy up on the LF on the sticky, paper clip tracks such as Marysville. We fiddle with the shocks quite a bit but of course, like everything, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
With a lot of tracks leaning toward the slick prep we seldom see a big cushion anymore.
