I was having issues with it running real fat in the middle of a race and it would take 3-4 laps to clear out. I played with the high speed a bit but it was still doing it.

What I need to do is actually tune it for the TQ. When it wasn't loaded up the thing was a rocket though. I doubt I'll use anything else.
Pull your button off and look at the sleeve and piston and the bottom of the button. My got tinted with some sort of oil build up. It wasn't fat either. It did the same thing as well. It changed tune mid round. I have had that happen on a new engine and on a engine that runs great with another brand of fuel. I am wondering if it is the TQ that is causing that.
