Oil weights – weather determined

Oil Weights and the Weather
With the winter months ahead, many of us race indoor events where shorts and t-shirts are required with temps up to 25-30 deg and then some outdoor events where we need layers of clothing, cloves and so on, with temps many times below freezing

The oils in the shocks become very important and this must be a considaration when setting up your buggy

In my experience the cold certainly affects the oils more than the heat……bare this in mind when setting up your buggies…….always consider the weather temperature……

HOTTER = thicker oil
COLDER = thinner oil
