I don't know if it still applies but we used to do a Q&D check by bouncing the car and seeing how fast it damped out. Push down on a fender until the car is moving up and down as much as you can get it to move. Release fender. Count how many times the car cycles up/down before returning to normal. Just how fast is normal nowadays, I don't know.
