PS I've actually always found the handling ok on the Dyna myself by shortening and hardening the suspension (only used it indoors), but its very heavy and I can't get the dampers from it to work properly at all!!
Its also not as strong as modern cars, looking at the steering knuckles etc.

The WE has the original 501X manual with an addendum manual for the WE's modifications, all in english. Don't know about the TRF416.
The Dynastorm was heavy indeed. I lightened it with a CF chassis and other CF parts, Ti turnbuckles and Ti screws. But all of this made the car understeer even more so I had to add a ridiculous amount of lead (50-75g or so) on the front bulkhead to get some pressure on the front drivetrain, thus neutralising all my weight savings .
They just got the weight distribution on that car plain WRONG.
The amount of pack of the original shocks was to little to make them effective and other shock pistons weren't really available at the time, so I ended up using the older HiCap shocks from my Super Astute instead (BTW, those are still some of the best shocks EVER).
Still, the car was 1 sec. a lap slower compared to my by then dialed Super Astute.
