I was running it that [in Bold] way and you can feel the dead spot after the car had been sitting for a while after a rebuild. I would pump it 2-3 times before each run.

FWIW the cars with the new configuration were hard to keep up with on Saturday's Club race.
In the process of converting mine. My X10-15 is getting its links cannibalized while I wait for parts
