[Question]What is Packer??

[prize]

Is is part of the rings? aerodynamics? or part of suspension? what is it???
I can not feel any difference increase or decrease it when driving in GTR or F1..:confused:
I look up my English dictionary, but none of the meaning is suitable. ah! :p

I will be pleased if you tell something about packer to me here.
Thanks!~

I think they serve to increase the ride-height of the car.

But, don't quote me on that, though.

Also, keep well, and, try not to be too scared of SARS.. But, I can understand the terror, of it.

increase front>increased understeer>front ride height reduced
without bottoming out.

increase rear>increased oversteer>frt rideheight reduced....

decreased front> increased oversteer>bottom out more often.

decrease rear>increased understeer> botoom out more often.

thats about it.
hope it will help u.

Here's what Doug Arneo says:

"The packers just space the bumpstop close to the shock body, limiting travel."

I've attached the whole document. It's a PDF file.

chris, I am not too scared, the campus is very safe the teachers tell us, hehe, at least I can see no one wearing "respirator(sth cover ur mouth)" within it compare to the outside, someone do it. It's not too bad here this city while the capital city north there where has hundreds sufferd luckless, My city is probably one of the "headstreams" of the unknown virus, but it's been becomed better now. No problem of me to now but not sure I won't.... :(
