DAMPING The four oil-fi lled shocks of this GM-Racing car have largest infl uence on its handling. Whenever you re-assemble these shock absorbers again: Do it carefully! Assemble the absorbers always in pairs (in front and in the back). If one of the front shocks should be somewhat softer or harder than the other one, the vehicle will steer along curves in one direction different than in the other one.
