The back end would just slide out, Im really sick of this thing right now.
Im giving it one more chance this weekend. While I was trying to race it I broke a steering rack, so I got to pick a few of those up this weekend. No big deal. Right now everything is on the Team Chassis, Im going to build the car back onto the FT Chassis and HOPEFULLY it will run good, how should I set this thing up so it don't slide? Why was it slding? Yes I used Traction Action, Half front inside, full rear.
Any ideas are appreciated!

If your from Sterling Heights, I assume you've been running at Larry's. Unless he put the new carpet down, you shouldn't be having any problems with the car. I recommend using Barry Bakers carpet setup as listed on the Assoicated website. I found this was an excellent starting place for the car at Larry's. If you use this setup exactly, you will have a really strong car at Larry's. Also use Jaco foams (I use purple/orage and purple). The FT chassis is the way to go!
Other than that, another factor could be you are not using the tire sauce correctly. Personally, I think the sauce they allow there is terrible and very difficult to use. Ask some of the fast people how they use it.
