Does your speedo have a punch adjustment? If so, try adjusting it to a lower setting. You could also try a different pinion to see if that helps.

have you tried fitting a wheelie bar mate?

the tamiya midnight pumpkin and lunchbox models suffered a similar problem. perhaps a wheelie bar would help you. you could gaffer tape or cable tie it onto the gearbox.

wheely great

this is easy
it caused by those who talkbollockius, what you need to do it fit one of the new fufar valves that is made by analretards, these can be found at www.icrantdrive.com there very cheap and are inserted through the rear passage.
