The struggle is real

I spent the day at the track messing around with my Hyper TT and my B6D.  The weird thing is I built a new B6D with almost exactly the same setup as my old B6, but it drives completely different, and not in a good way.  The only differences are ceramic diff balls, hard arms, and Pucks + a heavier C-block to offset the weight difference.

My guess is the issue is the new springs are probably a different rate.  It looks like Associated springs are of relatively poor quality and consistency, so I'm going to test the springs tomorrow and maybe try another brand.  Or maybe pick up another set of front springs and pick the set that are closest to true rate.

On the Hyper TT front, the suspension package still seems good, and the main issue I'm having is some serious inconsistency in traction and handling.  I'm pretty sure the issue is the diffs -- they are basically open diffs from the factory with just a tiny bit of grease.

I tore down the truck and put in 5k/7k/3k front/center/rear.  Just on the bench, the rear seems a little too light.  I suspect 7k/7k/5k would probably be about right, but we'll see how it goes.  I should be able to get some testing in tomorrow.

On the plus side, this is the first time I haven't broken anything on the Hyper TT.  Someone mentioned the rear droop screws cause the rear arms to break.  I backed them out and didn't break an arm.  The last two times I was out, I broke a rear arm each time.
