The FW04 definitely likes to be run soft. I think the HPI car does too. You have more steering with the HPI, but I don't think you need to worry too much about traction rolling. Does the Supernitro have droop screws? You can reduce the amount of droop and it should help with the traction rolling if you have that problem. If the backend is hopping around, it sounds like you need to use heavier shock oil.

If you're trying to limit the class that much, why not just require the use of the kit engine and carb? Those engines aren't that bad as long as you make sure the sleeve is lined up correctly. I bet that would be a fun class and I think the Kyosho car with the GS15 engine would be pretty competitive with the HPI with the 15FE.

You missed RCCar last time. Should have seen Chris A's Super traction roll everywhere. Everyone was running really soft to get traction but Chris' Super was so soft it waddled like a duck....before it turned turtle
