+1 for all the above, specially the ice cream

Thanks also to Kev Lee for the advice about top link positions, swaybars etc., it made a real difference.

I found the cut staggers a bit unpredictable on the front of my 4WD in morning practice so I also went back to the 2WD front minispikes which were much better.

Regarding the low profile cut staggers, would these not artificially change the rotating speed of the front wheels in relation to the rear because their diameter is smaller? With full-time 4WD (i.e no centre diff) this would have the effect of underdriving the front (or overdriving the rear), perhaps a more experienced 1/10th buggy driver could comment on how this would effect the car.
