Honestly, you will get more helpful information if you search this topic then anything. It's been covered so many times here. Search "shocks" and you could read about every possible combination for days...

by broken shock mount he means he was only wheelin on one side. it was a circle rock track. with obstacles only on the right side. looks like tofer was fully prepared and he was the grand prize winner.
