Recommendations Sought
Looking for suggestions on a good steering dampener for the F2. Additionally, I would like to get frame sliders and it is my understanding plastic must be cut?
The F2 is for track use with thoughts of possibly racing it next season.
I was thinking about the Hyperpro RSC for the dampener.
Thanks in advance.

I know it is pricey. There are a couple others in the 250 range. I was also thinking as you are, hasn't happened yet and it probably won't. I have since been convinced that it's not a bad idea to have a dampener.
I'm thinking as my skills increase so does the speed and a tank slapper is waiting out there for me somewhere. It may not even be self induced but a crack in the track's pavement or something beyond my control.
Is spending $$ on a dampener worth sparing me an ugly off? Yes.
Is a $250 dampener as good as a $450 dampener? Is the extra 250 just the looks?

If you can afford a dampener without taking away from other necessities for the track (track fee's, tires, oil, etc) go for it.
The extra peace of mind may even shave a few seconds off your lap times.
As for the functionality between the $250 damper and the $450 damper, it depends on the quality, price can mean nothing or can be everything.
Although I must say the Hyperpro looks much more sturdy than the other dainty ones I've seen for the F2. (cant remember the brands at this time)
