Shocks are often the most overlooked part of suspension, and probably the most "tuneable" part you can add to it!!!!!!
Slippery tracks, or tracks that you just flat overpower require a shock with adjustable rebound.....As the day warms up, the rebound needs to be softened up to maintain the grip! What works in time trials in the morning with a 75 degree track isn't going to work in eliminations that afternoon when the track temps is 115 degrees! Shocks are the easiest way to keep the suspension dialed in to track conditions. Some 90-10 "easy up" shocks on the front will help a lot, too! When you're doing bushings, some urethene bushings in the front (with a grease zerk added in) will really free up the front suspension movement and help with weight transfer!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
