Car was amazingly fast and the only thing I did to it all night was add about 30-40g of weight behind servo(ive yet to check weight exactly)because as James(RHR) has said the nose was lifting slightly on jumps. Ran the car again and it was just about there for my liking.

First proper meet with it will be the West Bridfgford regional in a few weeks.

Are you running a full size servo or a low profile ?

I have a full size Sanwa erg and think I need a little more weight to get the nose to come down sooner on small jumps.
Also what should the gearing be for a 7.5 motor ( indoor tight grippy track) I am currently running a 6.5 vortex / Orion r10 with 21/85 and find it hard not to over jump on the small hops.thinking of going 7.5 or 8.5.
