I would try just oil first. Depending on how hot the weather is , i would go up a minimum of 2.5 weight all the way around. If it's 90 degrees plus where you are, id try going up 5 weight from the evans setup.
Ive also found i like more pack when i run the bigger battery. I like drilled 5's with 27.5 pink spring, 2- inside in the rear.

What type of track are you running on? There is more that goes into foam selection then just weather the track is indoor or outdoor.
. I like the flag in the window

Here is what I have learned from my own experiences with a 22 (terrible) all the sponsored drivers at my local track:
TLR 22 is a pain in the ass.
You have to run funky batteries.
The Team Losi XXX-CR was and is a better car.
The Associated B4.1 is even better than that.
If you drive a 22 long enough, you start dreaming about a B4.
This is unlikely to change any time soon.
There are a lot of technical reasons for this, but I think Losi should re-release the XXX-CR and go from there, because it was just better.

The car with the shorty pack is the 22. The car with the saddle packs is the C4.1 conversion for the B4.

Tuning Advise
Best tuning advise I ever got: "Set the car up for YOUR driving style at the track your on."

+1!
It's frustrating when people bad mouth a car quite possibly they have no clue what they are doing with it.
But that is coming from me, I know what changes to make if a car isn't doing what I want it to. More steering, less steering, the 22 really does it all, and it does it quite well.
I can understand it on the other end of the spectrum too, if your someone with out the techinical know how to change the car to the track your on, then ask someone who does. Any fast driver should be able to help you.
