Just did the first practice day up in winter wonderland canada. Wow its great! It was loose off power for the first little while but slowly started hooking up. I can feel that it might need a little weight in the rear. Im running pretty hard packed track with sugured corners. It jumps really great and rotates well under braking. Im using aka impact ss, jconcept blackjack ss and proline bolockades ss. I found the blockades hook up best and have least wear so far. I love this car!

Check to make sure your brakes are not engaging and if that doesn't help raise the rear ride height as it sounds like the rear is slapping on take off bucking the rear end.

This car is Awesome! Just had my first race with it here at my local track, I am usually a C main driver at best, but my first race out with my 7R and I qualified first in the B. This car feels like it drives itself compared to my Losi. I'm thinking I'm switching all my kits to Mugen!

If you go to www.hudy.net you can download their setup book. It is gauged towards the X-ray cars but the theories are the same. It is a great tool when you have a question of "what will this change do to the car?" If you buy a HUDY setup station, you get a hard copy of it.
