The suntan lotion makes the traction last all 8 min and keep the tires clean all run. Straight paragon fades late in a run and pick up all kinds of dust.



Hmmm, thats wierd.... When my parents watch me do that, there going to think I have lost my mind LOL

You may actually want more flex (chassis roll) on carpet to reduce steering and traction rolling...just like with a sedan.
Hmmm, I really need to read more.... Sorry for the dumb questions
