If I do, the back end just comes around me. Once straight, I can gun it.

I drive on a high grip wet clay indoor track. On Saturday, I switched the rear tires to some Pro-Line suburbs in M3 (Soft) compound that I turned into slicks and the truck was working for me, although still not how I'd like. On Wed, they started drying the track out for a reconfig next week and the same tires were horrible. I tried slicks that I made from suburbs in MC (Clay) compound and they were even worse. I tried Bar Codes in Gold and that was as bad as the clay suburbs slicks. Other racers were running these same tires with success so I feel I have a setup issue. Here is my setup:

I feel like I'm driving this thing on ice. My fastest lap last night was 27.5. That was slowest of anyone in all 3 mains. I was embarrased more than anything. I have V2 shocks coming with the Avid BB conversion. I'm currently running the stock RTR RS ones (blue ones) and I believe piston 2 is in front and rear. I have the Racer's Edge rear hub carriers to install and the ball diff. I'm just wondering what people think I can change to help plant the rear end.

Thanks in advance guys. Really appreciate it.

Any weight in the truck?

I woul move front shocks out go to gold springs and make sure you have 3oz in rear also your unknown diff could be fighting you.
