Mike's is electric only. 
Indy R/C World in Garland is nitro indoor. That's our "home track."

And right next door in the gas station are the best tacos in the DFW area... and no, I'm not kidding. Plan lunch from there... and be hungry!

I captured 2 videos for you to see the problem with the throttle return spring. Video 1 shows the failure of the throttle return spring to close the carb if the kit goes out of electricity, and the second video shows the throttle return spring replaced with 2 Goody Ouchless rubber bands capable of closing the carb, but then the servo hasn't enough power to open the carb fully. Please take a look at the videos for me (link below). I need a new servo, right?
P.s. I told you before I had to rotate the carb to being able to access the low speed needle, but then the servo wouldn't have a straight pull. I have now rotated the carb back so the throttle servo has a straight pull.

Thanks a lot for the reply man! I will get that awesome servo HiTec HS-7955TG which is btw 7.4 times more powerful than my current servo xD
But won't it then consume a lot more energy, so the battery onboard the kit will sooner run dry? Will a rechargeable flat battery pack last longer than AA batteries, I'm planning on getting one of those flat battery packs.
