thanks for the reply guys.(sry for the repeat posts) but NOBODY has replied about indoor carpet. i "wanna" run indoor carpet with plaid fronts/purple rears. i've played with this car for over a month. i'm having a hard time getting this thing to work. people say andy moore's set-up is good but i disagree. i'm on a tight track that allows NO traction compound. surely somebody can help.........i'm about to trade this thing out.
