Thanks

They are much smoother when using a lot of steering lock.

If you use full lock with a spool and hold the car off the ground, when you add some power you'll notice that the wheels chatter and vibrate quite badly, this is normal when using a spool with all cars.
You don't this at all with the ECS driveshafts.

More smooth. More low speed steering at least for carpet.

There is no negative to running them on asphalt so no need to take them off.

Asphalt:
To be clear, there are advantages with ECS drives. If you are an average club driver then maybe you will not see anything. But if you race Nats or are regional A final level then you will find the smoother drive in corners will help. We did extensive back to back testing two years ago on our track and found a consistent improvement in lap times of 0.2 to 0.3 secs.

i put my ECS axles back in last weekend and i needed to move my "lift" point at the end of the straight by 1 or 2 meters because i wasnt scrubbing my speed off with the corner,and it isnt the tightest of corners :shock: :shock:

i like them a ot BUT i miss a little bit of initial turn in ,any advice for getting this back ???

I think you have to have more oversteer and short the weelbase on front and short the track width
