Question to Outcast (and Notorious I guess) owners: do you still have some free movement t possible in the shocks when the chassis is touching the ground, or are the shocks fully compressed before that happens?
I want to get a car that accepts large tires like the backflips, but not destroy shocks when landing big jumps.
My Tekno MT410 has the shocks fully compressed way below the chassis touches the ground with backflips and I've broken shock pistons this way in the past with other cars, so I want to avoid it as much as possible.
 
I haven't had any shock problems but I've been getting some major air here lately and just noticed that my diff cups are eating away at my control arms but not causing an issue....To answer your question yes I do still have movement...This is on my Notorious(Outcast) and Kraton...mostly running Backflips
 
I just pushed my outcast down so the chassis is flat on the table, then I lifted one of the wheels up and it was able to go about a half inch or so
