Howard.....If you are going to race that car on carpet I would suggest getting another chassis for it. The stock one is a too soft and makes the car a hand full on carpet when the bite is high like at IRP. I have seen a few guys try to race them and they work ok until the traction level gets high like how it normally is at IRP now. You can get the CRC T-Force chassis for 35 bucks and maybe rear brace and then you will have a better car for carpet or higher bite carpet. Anyway good luck with the car and if you need any help stop by and see me.
