Hmm.. let me guess ar tongue.gif 1) absorb vibration from motor as u mentioned
                                    2) absorb landing impact so wont bounce..
                                    3) i dunno.. Can teach me why u install the damper this way(pointing back) instead of pointing to the front?

Btw, This sunday 8 march at tampines blk 419 the first prize abit different this time round  thumbup.gif  (2 lane track wif laptimer + MS car iirc)  thumbup.gif

620 ball bearings means the outer diameter is 6mm, and the hole diameter is 2mm. They are better than usual ball bearings cuz there is no unnecessary lateral movement between the inner and outer ball bearing casing, making your car more stable and faster.

Mass dampers are used to absorb shock when the car lands. Though if you set it right, it can be used to alter the CG of the car during a jump.

The Steering system is a dead weight. Because there is no mechanism to ensure the wheels will turn towards the right direction and it cannot keep the car running straight @ straight sections.

There are a few places in SG that still have Bergkaiser. It's a very beautiful car. I like it as well. Though slight modification have to be made to fit the cover onto other chassis.

I have been using Sliding Dampers since I first started competing. The black one works like a sliding damper. It's made from reinforced plastic so it does not bend as easily as the earlier ones.

I install the sliding damper at the rear so as to achieve a turning effect during turns.

Will slow down the car in a corner if you put the sliding damper in front. Put in the rear and it will achieve a faster cornering.

If put the damper in front, car will change direction towards the wall, thus generating resistance and slowing the car down.

However if put in the rear, the car will change direction away from the wall, reducing the forward resistance of the car pushing on the track wall.

It is the same concept as to narrow/wide roller width front, wide/ narrow roller width rear.

However only use the chrome spring. The black spring is too soft.

haha smoking the cover I have never heard about the method. I tried searching @ google before the tutorial but the only thing I found was powder painting.

Perhaps you might want to add a bit more info on what is smoking the poly-cover?
