No, no other changes yet. The secret unnamed driver did notice the lack of - I guess you'd call it pack or pressure?? in the shocks - basically landing from the big jump on the flat, the car would bounce.

This is because I used the bleed screws and took ALL the air out - meaning there was no pressure at all on full compression (the shaft would barely push its self out) so instead of the shaft slowing down at the end of the travel it would hit hard at the bottom of the body and the car would bounce.
A little bit of pressure would have slowed it down enough to stop this I think and I noticed the car got unsettled from that big jump a couple of times where richard lowes car didn't.

So - we'll fix that for next time. Other than that, it was pretty awesome.
