Earlier today I was comparing the flex of the SV2 and the 8mm SV with the skinny top deck.

The SV2 is a LOT stiffer, but very noticeably, the flex is in a totally different place - just in front of the motor, rather than roughly in the middle of the car as of the SV.

This makes sense with 2wd, flex at the rear to generate more grip.

The turnbuckle makes sense as it allows side to side flex, but not front to rear.

Can't wait to run it this Sunday!
