GHEA pistons for indoor carpet?

[Toyman]

Shall I bother installing GHEA pistons now? Will I get any effect when racing on indoor carpet, i.e rather smooth surface?
Am I right that the most noticeable effect from tapered pistons is on bumpy tracks?

What car are you running and what kind of trak as in how big are the jumps and landings?

Vega B4.
I am yet to see the track for this season, but last year we had medium ply-wood jumps and a couple of bumpy sections made from either frisbies or from gym mats laid like "steps"
The venue is school gym hall 100% covered with carpet.

Iv got Ghea 2 in the rear of my Vega B4 as per Paul Bradby set up I looked at.

They seem good indoors on the matt/wave sections. Worth a try!

I havent really investigated these before, so I have a couple of questions, hope that's alright to ask them here:

Are these only for use in the rear?
Which ones should I use in a B44? Am I likely to need a range of these for indoor and outdoor racing?

Thank you,

Chris.

Ghea 1 in rear for smaller smoother jumps and track
Ghea 2 for big bumpier track with larger jumps
In theory

Alight chris, ive bought a set of 4 ghea 2 pistons for the c4.1 & b44 to try, going to fit them on the b44 for next tuesday. I bought 2's purely because thats what bradders was using in the rears of his cars.
