One guy let me use his rear proline pinpoint tires which made a big difference, but the car really seemed to be pushing a lot (I still had the dirt webs on the front). Will that be corrected once I get a pair of pinpoints on the front as well?
Also what is a good setup to run for carpet? I wasn't planning to run on carpet when I got the buggy so I set it up originally to the gunsmoke setup I believe.
I am running the Schelle extended carbon chasis right now but I also have the aluminum extended chasis. Would the aluminum chasis be better for carpet?
I would use the Aluminum chassis for carpet, less chassis flex. Also, once you get the front carpet tires, you will have no issues with pushing.
