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  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 |
