I am thinking it is to rcich but i dont want to ruin a new engine by leaning it out any more. If there is already a good thread on carb tuning please point me in the right direction because right now i am very frustrated. I guess i should have bought an OS! Thanks in advance for the help.

Try this one by OFNA. BTW, DON'T TUNE YOUR ENGINE WITHOUT A TEMPERATURE GAUGE IF YOU ARE NEW TO NITRO. For how to tune your engine the only method I know off my head is from this link below and good luck.
