The length of your suspension will mostly affect how well your vehicle avoids damage from difficult, uneven terrain as well as your vehicle's cornering ability.

	A higher suspension will improve your vehicle's handling when driving over sharp dips and peaks in a race track's terrain. The higher your suspension, the better the chances that you will coast over such obstacles without affecting the direction in which your vehicle is heading. A higher suspension will also prevent your car from bottoming out on rough terrain, a situation that would lead to potential armor damage (particularly to front armor) and loss of speed and direction.

	It’s paramount to note that the same settings for Suspension Length and Suspension Stiffness may lend radically different (and even opposed) results from one chassis to another. The first step to experimenting with these two settings is to “know” the vehicle you’ve chosen. The initial suspension height and stiffness for one vehicle (say a Sunrise –which is very high and very soft) will be entirely different from those of another (say a Flash – which is very low and very stiff). Trial and error will teach you the proper settings for your driving style, although these description will provide you with guidelines.
