Thanks so much for all the advice, I will go through things in more detail and try to get the car dialled in. These little cars are so much fun :)

Your welcome, any time. Yes, these cars are super fun, and as long as you're not outfitting a whole fleet, grabbing a few parts to tweak with doesn't kill your wallet either!

Notes-This car is super quick and fun, but a challenge to drive consistently. I only had a couple of tries this month. Last month I used the left over bits from my MR-04 ReadySet to convert the front end of this car to the 04 suspension (not pictured) and the steering improved, but it needs more work. This run was at 91% consistency.
