i am running the 8.0 springs up front and kyosho yellow with the truggy tower out back. i tried the new 8.75 springs in the back, but the car just works better through the corners with the yellow kyosho springs.
Are you using ae oil? Running stock rear towers or truggy towers? What type of track are you running this set up?
