Thanks,

Steve,
Yep! I experienced the same thing when the traction came up on my first race at Chico.
You didn't notice how Doug (and Marshall) successfully runs itty-bitty tires at Chico when the traction goes up...they be way under 56mm.
Get it down to 4mm ride height too.
The Losi steel tray will make you way over weight with a 5000 pack. Last resort; but, maybe necessary if the above two suggestions don't take care of your issue completely.
