Something else to consider, too, that the oil we use in shocks is not oil made for shocks—it's a typical R/C product that has been re-appropriated from some other industry, re-bottled into 2 oz. containers and sold to us at a huge mark-up.
Real race shock technology uses one viscosity of an oil made for shocks, then tunes with pack, pistons, valves and other components not yet used in an R/C shock.
We're still using shock technology that was developed for the RC10 in 1983. Think about it.
