Aaron, cool, thanks!

Here is a quick story related to too much steering.

At the last TeamLosi championships at Minnreg, I bumped into the A main on taper pins with my XXX-NT(silver ft, red rear). For the 30 minute A, I didn't think they would last, so I threw on a set of last minute decision tires I had never tried on the super grooved Minnreg surface. Directional fronts(silver) and Lugnuts(M3)........During the 30 minute main I moved over for Ryan and Adam about 8 times, LOL, maybe more. I had to barely breathe on the steering wheel to do a hyper donut at any given time. It was ridiculous, felt like slicks on the back and step pins on the front would on a sandy loamy surface! The first turn during warm-up I felt it was too crazy, but we couldn't get them off in time for the start. After, I looked at my laps and realized i'd have been WAY faster using a lap or two to change them.....oh well.

Way too much steering, LOL........Jim
