The back tires on the Wolf are big and I think that may be causing it to be sluggish. They are much bigger than those weenie tires the other F1 guys are using (kidding!). They are 65mm tall/diameter. How does that compare to what the rest of you are using?
I used to run around 46-49 mm rollout on a silvercan. Go to gearchart.com and use the pancar setting to make a rollout chart.
