So went to adjust the preload on the springs of my rc car after re doing the shocks. So this is on me, the 1st one i did stuff up. It was leaking. So not the end of the world, i made 2 mistakes, didnt seat the bladder properly and didnt tighten the cap enough. So a bit of a wipe and re oil and attempt to get it right, not too bad. Ill wear that. Other 3 shocks were golden. Then i noticed a circlip was missing from an axle. Theyre tiny and i dunno how i even noticed. But i have spares off busted axles i keep for spares. Fiddly yes, but job done. So pre thrash after preload adjustment i measured the front with a spirit level. Post thrash i did the same, it didnt appear to be leaking, but science. So it appears to be good. All this handling business makes the thing a heap quicker. So not faster as the top speed is the same, but qucker as it can launch better, enter corners with more speed, maintain mid corner speed and exit with more speed.
