Airing an 1/8 scale buggy out over the jumps is far from the only important factor in its abilities. How it transitions through the turns and rough areas of the track play a role as well. The track's surface was somewhat blown out, given the fact that the last race was a few months ago and there hadn't been any surface preparation since that time. A few hard rains had created some ruts in places as well, which wouldn't have been there under race conditions. However they worked well for testing out the buggies stability on less than ideal terrain.
The oversized shocks were given a healthy workout by the conditions I encountered, but the out of the box suspension seemed to favor the buggy well. None of the ruts or blown out areas seemed to upset the buggy as it ran through a section of the track, and the suspension still seemed firm enough to land the buggy with satisfactory dampening. Even the preferred route through the rhythm section didn?t upset the buggy.
