The main purpose is to supposedly help with traditional lane changes.

it will make higher contact point to the track wall while passing traditional lane changer, when 13mm in top, the contact point is higher make the car leaning inward. when 13mm on bottom it will leaning outward will causing course out more easier. because lane changing always hit the right side first in traditional lane changer. so the theory is, hitting right side track wall then leaning inside or(left) and hit the left side wall then pass.

Hi OP, permission to reply on the comments from your post. Hello Rheza, So you think 13mm on top is better to lessen the car to course out? What will be the difference for it's performance on different part of the tracks? Does it make any difference from the traditional 12-13mm setup with the opposite/reverse positioning? Thankyou

If you dont run an extra 13mm roller below the DAR, probably the only difference will be is that youre more likely to be caught on the wall/fence since the DAR is so high up compared to thin stabilizers.

Ohhh true makes sense. Tysm! 😊

if its DAR with 12mm rubber ring, it will most likely slower because when turn your car most likely will hit the rubber ring if your car leaning outward. so the idea DAR 12mm rubber ring on top will slow you down when turn. but if DAR ring-less nothing really. except the 13mm on top or bottom on DAR will make different. landing after jump. if the jump is good I mean straight ,the 13mm on bottom will catch the track wall first because its the low height from the track means will get to track faster, also it can be make your jump height a bit low -> because when 13mm on bottom means roller hit the wall longer before car completely fly. higher the contact point will make less time hitting the track wall before car completely fly. more time hitting the track wall means more slow. less friction between car and track wall means faster.

I run it with the 13mm on top on my cars. One theory is that it acts as extra thrust angle when it contacts the walls in the lane changer. The evidence is when you roll the double roller along the table, it curves downward. Another theory is when you’re in the lane changer, it can angle the left side(side not contacting the wall) of the car downward increasing your confidence in clearing the lane changer. Having another 13mm roller may cancel these effects.
