The new Hongnor Shock Towers for the X1CR Buggy are CNC machined from a thicker 5mm aircraft grade 7075 plate and hardened to T6. The towers are then Hard-Coated with our special material for wear and durability.
The front tower now has multiple half holes at the top and 3 mounting holes at the bottom.
The rear towers have half holes at the top and an extra row on the bottom inside. The multiple choice of shock mounting positions now gives more flexibility for different track conditions.

We quote from kdub from rctech.
On the race:
Cavalieri and Maifield were both awesome, qualified 2nd and 4th. We tried some more things on the setup and the cars are coming along nicely. Unfortunately the weather was terrible for practice so we didn’t get much track time. Also, Saxton was ill all weekend and not at 100% strength.
