Cougar SV TOP DECKS

[stegger]

Looks like there's 3 different top decks available STIFF,MEDIUM and SOFT does anybody know what will come with the kit ?

[mikeyscott]

Where did you see this?

[purplenut]

Not heard anything but i expect it will be the had one so its stiffer?.

[blitzboy]

seen all three buddy but would guess the stiff top deck would be with the kit ,,, only a guess though hahahahahahahaha

Mikey, it's on the parts listings on the shui site mate It also looks like we will only need 1 set of front and rear springs for the SV and the SXII

Awesome. Just need to decide whether my Cat SX goes up for sale for a SX2!

Should think so too when the shocks are £80 and the springs £60!!!!

[purplenut]

Under the Cat SX2 or Cougar SV parts section under big bore shocks

It's on the site fella
It will be interesting to see what spring rates the team have been using on both cars ? because it was rare to change from the red and greys on the SX's old shocks, it would reduce the cost of getting complete sets.

Oh yea i was looking at suspension lol
Thats just crazy,would of thought they would be a little cheeper for us devoted racers to upgrade???

Failing that I'll be selling one of my Losi sets to fund the Schumacher shocks...

to be fair makey we have no idea which springs are needed yet, if its anything like the cat we only use 2 pairs,

[DaveG28]

That does sound pricey for springs but how many rates does it include and as Carl says you may only need a few!

Shocks wise £80 isn't bad, The Yokomo ones cost a bomb and even Tamiya none big bores are over £40 a set from HK, so I think Schuey are being reasonable! (sorry for dropping on a Schuey thread!)

I've had a a sleep now Yes it is the "STIFF" top deck in the kit.

Top Deck flex is an essential tuning aid for car performance. Use more flex when traction is low. Use stiff Top Deck as supplied in the kit when traction is high.

When i tried the flexi one at blyth i didnt like it, the stiff one felt much nicer..

They had a special one with flames cut into it, not sure if its a production thing but if it is its a must have due to the bling factor, looked cool

[Northy]

Will there be 27 types of main chassis like for the SX?
