Zeon Adjustments
Went for a run at the local hobby shop today, Made some changes i fitted my RC926 springs and changed over to Yokomo silicone oils also removed the active setup from the front for now i didn't notice any real big advantage of having it i'll keep the set up and maybe try it again in the future.
Also fitted my Kazama rear lower arms and drive shafts, The arms are shorter and help me fit all my 7mm offset rims under my bodies.
I saw that tail slider do a brace for the zeon's steering wiper,When i saw it i thought the standard zeon wiper bridge would fit as im using their adjustable one on the car. It did so i'm using that as a brace now.

Damper Oils
I've always ran Tamiya VG mineral based damper oils i'm not sure if its the oil or not but i've always had issues with leaking even with new seals etc and it always seems to get dirty real quick. So i've decided to change to Yokomo silicone oil its not very costly so ill see if there is a noticeable improvement.
I also picked up a Wrap Up Next protection film to protect the bottom of the Zeon while i ordered the oils.

First run with roll mod
So I put together the roll mod setup tonight and gave it a test run on my small track in my garage.
First thought was not much difference a little more understeer but after a few laps I notice it seemed to pivot around the front wheels a little more. I'll give it a shot at our warehouse meet this weekend to see if I can feel the difference on a more open track where I can get more chassis roll happening.
Browsing the Wrap Up Next blog
I was just over checking out hte WUN site and just thought i'd post up some pics i liked
Their new lower arms/ hubs look nice
Looks like they are trying a horizontal damper with their upper arms in a few different layouts
With regular dampers
and with regular damper position but without springs
Interesting
