24042 is the really old short needle carb , easy to tune but bad mileage



I messed up on my mechanical aptitude

I put a whole new set of shocks on for the Nitro buggy 40 + main and I tried to pull the sHocks off with the washers I had on there and they didn't come off but during the race apparently it was a little different story

Good call. I know after practice several people changed motors, especially after the last two layouts at fear farm.
