Default associated or tamiya?

hi guys after years of racing with associated cars i decided to go tamiya for this year.
i don't feel like the tamiya is the car for me.
now before everyone starts shouting lee martin is flying with his, believe me i'm no lee martin.

so the question is do i stick with the tamiyas or go back to associated?

if you vote try something else please leave a post what you think.

How have you got the car setup, it makes a big difference, and what makes you feel that the cars not right?

i just don't feel comfy with the car, it just feels a bit to neutral on the track.
and believe me i'v worked at the setup, but i think it's the fact that i'v been an associated driver for so long it's tough to change.

Have a word with him either on here or at Kidderminster. Explain what the car's doing, not doing and im sure he will be able to give you some pointers.
