I would try running pro dive/pro squat in the arms ala josh cyrul setup. Asymmertic can help some but not much. I think the arm angle is a better option

Your car looked good yesterday in the 3rd qual and the main. 1st rd not so good...LOL Best quote of the day "But it drove great this morning".

Next time you are there I want you to drive my car and see if you like it. Its been very good there the past month or so.

And after him, I'll drive it too! hehe. Anthony, I found more problems with my car last night when I got home. Who ever had it before, tightened down the front sways bars so that they don't move freely. I mean, they were on tight. And well, one side link... A700-P05 whatever whatever whatever popped off. I guess I need to keep digging further. Oh yeah, you busy Black Friday? They are having a race at Let's Go Racing....

The manual needs a bit of a update, your EVO comes with the latest ballcups made by Awesomatix. Dating back the orginal A700 Oleg use to include Kyosho ballcups which come in three different sizes as seen in the manual.

A note with the new ballcups, I find the material "sticky" and find that pre threading them helps a lot.
