IMHO, OVERALL HANDLING feels about the same; but corner entry and to some degree corner exit is drastically different.
To carry more speed into the corners with the spool, you're on throttle alot longer than with the 1-way. Tap the brakes and get right back on throttle early-mid corner. The spool has alot more inherent braking effect too.
With the 1-way, brakes for me usually is a big no-no. High speed 'coasting' suits this type of front end and over shootin' corners is a BIG problem for alot of peeps.
On that size track though, I would try both. The 1-way will probably win out & will yield lower motor temps.

I se Tamiya yellow springs used in a lot of asphalt set ups. I have PW's set up on its way into my car and want to have a set of the correct springs . . can someone help me with a part number or link or something? Or even an AE, Schui, Xray equivalent if nothing else.

hpi touring springs part# 6844 ( reds) are 13.3 lbs (but they feel a little softer than the tamiyas
ive been running pw's set up with the schumacher whites and it has been really good!! I think he used the tamiya yellows when he ran 5 cells( 51.8 instead of 53 ounces)

Is their a servo saver available for the Mi3? I have stripped out 2 servo horns recently due to some bad crashes. My car gets a weird pull to one side every once in a while when I crash and I have to trim the steering all over again.
What is the best way to fix this? I know the simple answer is not to crash but I was hoping that their was a mechanical fix. =)

Great day for Schumacher USA in Hawaii!
I made a couple of key changes to a set-up that Hewitt gave me, and the car was money. TQ'd GT by a lap. I now have a great starting point for folks running a tight, technical track. Thanks, Alan.
My motor went up after the 3rd lap, but the Tamiya 25T motors we run are junk. Can't wait until we go brushless!
