The car is very consistent across the 6 minutes. Trying to get the car to run faster upfront currently.

Hopefully after tomorrow I can report back and say that I'm in the top 3 where I feel like me and the car of capable of being. The car drives good and handles great. Will report back later and if I can get the car better I will post my setup if somebody wants it
Were you using the samix conversion on indoor carpet? I was curious to try this conversion but wasn't sure if there was any benefit to using it for 17.5 blinky on indoor carpet.
