Default MCS Dampers - They actually exist

Weiner sent photos of the first 964 set, going into my car.

I'm excited and thus have to post the gratuitious pic...

MSR-H will be a good test for dampers as that track is very uneven. Would be interesting to share your Joust and Rebound settings.

It's interesting that you sight the larger piston rod as a benefit. If you check out http://scarbsf1.wordpress.com/2011/1...otary-dampers/ it sounds like F1 wants smaller piston rods for the exact reasons you list as wanting them.

Anyone tried the MCS shocks out yet?
