Remove the screws which attach the shocks to the wishbones and make sure that all of the suspension works without any binding at all from full droop to maximum upward travel. The suspension should also move under its own weight. After that check that the shock are working nice and smooth. I notice the other day that one shock on the car was experiencing what they call "sticktion" where the o-rings were holding the shock shaft and it meant that it needed more push before it started moving. This upsets the balanace of the car. I run the 4 x 1.2 mm holes in the front with 35wt Losi oil and red springs and 5 x 1.3mm holes in the rear with 37.5wt losi oil whith black springs and find the car goes very well. I also have put on at 78T spur gear so that the motor is as far back as it can go.
