as for you getting traction....bigger pin tire would help....also keep in mind where the shocks are mounted...having them mounted in the back straight up and down as much as you can will generate more forward traction.
same as the front the more up/down you have them will generate more steering.
30 oil in front and rear is a good oil that is nuetral from track to tarck...prolly to soft for the carpet thing...but good start for the dirt....chris wolfson in here is good with the losi xxxt set-ups...even when i was stumped he showed me somethings...so maybe if you have more problems you can pm him with some helpo....he is a nice guy and will help out.
hope this helps,
matt

Man that article has a huge amount of info in it. I will be using it a little at a time so we can determine what helps and what doesn't. Changing 1 thing at a time is the way to go, but now we have alot of info to draw from.THANKS ALL FOR YOUR HELP!!!! I will keep everyone posted on how it's going. Also any other suggeestions would be WELCOMED!!!

You are right, changing one thing at a time is the best way.
Also, another thing I found that really helped me out a lot is where you marshal in a race. If you are consistently having trouble in one corner, turn or section of a racetrack, marshal that section. You will get a different perspective and possibly help you out when you are on the drivers stand.
