Low speed throttle response is "delayed". We are probably talking about less than 0.5s here but it is enough to fool you into thinking that you need more power to get out of a turn. Therefore, it becomes very hard to hold the line that you really want to, with a car set up right changing lanes during the corner is all in throttle finger! With the guys that I run with you only have to give them one car width and they have past you, holding and changing lines is very important!

The standing still pick up is also really bad!!

The mid-top end acceleration is very good, but it is the low end which is bad!
Maybe you should try a higher wind motor , 8-10 turns, you must be running in a very tight track, as for me, its fine big open track for 1/10 gas cars.
