print out this setup. http://www.teknorc.com/wp-content/up...ern%20Nats.pdf
Go over your car and see how different you are compared to it. This setup works amazingly well for me and everyone of my friends who has tried it.
Also keep in mind that the team setups use PT Racing Oils, not AE or TLR. They are significantly thinner. close to 2k thinner on diff fluids. So 7-7-5 PT is closer to 5-5-3 AE.

I posted this on the Tekin thread but didn't get much help , I'm using the Rx 8 gen 2 combo in my EB 48.3. Today at the track everything seemed to work as intended when the car was on it wheels goin around the track. But when I flipped it over and I had to walk out there to flip it over, I noticed a few times the wheels would start to turn on there own. The last time it happened it was like someone gave it a serious throttle punch and it wouldn't stop until I used the radio to stop the wheels. ive used the buggy for about 7 other times with no problem. Spektrum receiver and radio with glitch buster. Radio calibration was done, push control is off.
Any thoughts ?

I know no one running taper up personally. I've never even tried it 
*edit* as I said, I can admit when I'm wrong!
Talked to Joe and he runs Taper up /_\ in all conditions unless it's very high bite or really smooth.

diff oils
Currently running 7,7,5 southern nats. If I'm looking to lock down the rear a bit off power, and I mean just a touch. Would going up in the center and the rear help or hurt?
I realize it might create a whip effect or drift on heavy throttle, but I'm developing a controlled finger pretty quickly. I like the way the front feels lots of off power steering and a tad of mid push is making it really easy to drive so I wasn't planning on changes there. Any ideas
