Thanks for posting, Neal! It's a pity that most interesting pieces of information only shows up on fb nowadays, especially as it may become difficult to find it after a couple of days.
I am looking forward to getting a new buggy and the full set of RP springs later this year. What is the new go-to combination for the YZ-2 on carpet, orange/orange?

Yeah, agree on facebook, almost impossible to search, but times have changes and this BBs hasn't :-(

I've found i still use the light antiroll bars with the CA and the new RP springs on the Y-Z2, even on the bumpy astro for that extra bit of roll stiffness.

I'm currently on orange fronts and green rears, with 1.0mm front bar and 1.2 rear bar. I suspect when the grip goes up you'll want to go to orange rear too.

Many thank's for the chart Neal

I'm surprised how soft they are compare to the AE used on high grip tracks.

See Yokomo are way ahead of the game in terms of high traction setup. Be not surprised :-)

Some weeks ago, I got the chance to check those springs with my fingers. They felt as if they were degressive, i.e. softer towards the end of compression, which should make the car bounce less after landing. Can't wait to give them a try on the track myself! Unfortunately this will have to wait until September. The joys of work and being grown up and stuff...
