Do you limit the shock travel

Miles, So Dialed's RC setup AI

Yes, but only when the track calls for it. On the 22S Sprint Car, the kit setup uses 0 mm internal limiters front and rear. Other driver setups also leave them at 0 mm on hard-packed, concrete, and clay tracks; high-grip carpet setups use 6 mm front and 5 mm rear internal limiters.

Internal limiters shorten shock extension, reducing droop and available suspension stroke. Try them on high-grip carpet if the car feels too tall or rolls excessively. Start with the carpet values, and change one end at a time so you can feel the effect.

Keep external limiters at 0 mm as a starting point; the listed setups use zero. If limiting travel makes the car less able to follow bumps or reduces traction, back the limiters off.
