Noticed that he is running an XR1 now, anyone know when that switch happened?

I heard the swartz chassis has too much flex .... Which in their opinion makes the car inconsistence .... The rx1 is stiffer which in theory makes the car use suspension ... I hope Zack Dohm doesn't read this ....Last edited by Bob Hubbard; 07-26-2019, 09:24 AM.Retired - Snowbird ... Living the Dream

Flex actually equals consistency. However, consistently less than 100% performance. That whole philosophy has changed numerous times in the sport. Currently, the path is going back to rigid. When the tires are balloons, I have a hard time putting a ton of stock in any of it. The softest spring in a system determines your rate.Originally posted by Bob Hubbard View PostI heard the swartz chassis has too much flex .... Which in their opinion makes the car inconsistence ....

Honestly I think the older swartz cars (2015-2016 range) are better than the current. Zach Dohm is killing it in an older car and Linville did as well a couple years back.

A year or so ago, the word on the street was that 2016 cars were the worst. Obviously, Dohms was not. Linville "good car" was much older than that and modified.Originally posted by makin'bakin' View PostHonestly I think the older swartz cars (2015-2016 range) are better than the current.

I think you're on to something. Linville just raced the swartz house car to start his comeback, bought another swartz and switched to XR1 before he even took the first hot lap.... I live in swartz country and noticed the decline too.Originally posted by makin'bakin' View PostHonestly I think the older swartz cars (2015-2016 range) are better than the current.
