I'm not downing the car just need the help on setup cause I can only make it to the track on race day and that's it.
I had this same problem at BOW race and Ron reccomended that I add droop to the car. That seemed to fix the traction roll problem. This car keeps getting better and better. Another thing that I did to make the car drive a little easier was swapped the shock springs around, green springs in the front and silver in the rear.
