The track is in a high school drivers ed parking lot that has not been redone in a while so it is pretty bumpy. There is a really big bump on the big sweeper after the straight away that everyone gets pretty nervous about lol. I will try the lighter oil and I never installed the sway bars.

Hi I recently purchased and assembled my Mi1V2. I took it out racing on Sunday and got smoked in USGT. It is my 3rd time racing in USGT and my first with this car first two races I used a Tamiya TT02 and I was getting smoked even worse. I bought new everything chassis motor, esc, and servo. Now my straight away speed is great It is equal to the fastest guys. Now in the turns the car will not turn and I have to either drift or take wide turns. Is this because I am running the front diff and not a spool?
I use to race touring cars on carpet about 13 years ago when nobody really used spools but it looks like I am at a big disadvantage not using one. I know I am not the best driver but I feel like I should at least be middle of the pack. I think I should maybe fill out a setup sheet so you guys can see how the car is setup and maybe give me some recommendations.
The track I run on is outside on pavement and is pretty large with a 120'-130' straight away.

To tell you the truth the only difference from box stock is I filled the shocks with losi 40wt oil all around I am using the AE copper springs up front and the reds in the back. I am also using the outside holes on the hub carriers and I did file down the other whole like your write up and I took out the orings in the rear toe links. other than that it was pretty much stock. I dunno if it will let me load a sheet since I do not have enough post, but I will put it up in my gallery.

Just converted my dad's Mi1 over to a spool finally up front. It's a game changer with this car. Get the spool, and the G980 cv's, and you'll absolutely love it. No mods required, everything fits perfectly.

I trimmed the inner hole on all four corners.
You can use the inner in the rear for now, it'll probably make the rear end feel super stuck, as in it won't rotate a ton, but it will still be plenty drivable I'm sure. You have to do a ton wrong to these cars to get them to turn to crap. They just seem to work. Lol.

Noticing that the alloy c hubs have single mounting hole? Does it default to inner or outer position? No point in that upgrade if it is set to inner hole if so right?
Also? In regards to red o rings on rear track. Omit it from both sides or only center mount and leave them both installed on the front track assembly both positions?
