The
MkIIIC's suspension is unique for its "Riley Rocker" arrangement of the
spring and damper. Typically the spring/damper are combined into
one unit. The Riley Rocker splits the two units which makes adjustments
easier (allowing for pit lane adjustability) as well as the giving the
engineer the ability to make adjustments to one that does not effect the
other.
