That's a really interesting one Don. Would you care to scan some pages of your manual? Your car has quite a few differences to mine. Where are th erear shocks/springs? The front suspension plate is different too and with only one spring, is that OEM or custom mod?

Today I took mine to the track for the first time. It's really weird how it handles and in just a few minutes of practice I can't say I got the hang of it but it was nowhere near as difficult as mi RWD mini. It has however way too much rear grip so it's skipping the rear around corners. What was suprising is that it doesn't understeer at all. On the contrary, it steers very accurately and tight, so much so that I could floor it very early in the corners. It actually worked better that way because it has the typical FWD car lift-off oversteer. Very nice. And a lot of fun. I wonder how much power they can handle. One thing I have discovered is that the diff has to be built with the spring washer they give int he kit, otherwise you're not going to have the diff tight enough, and this is crucial to the car. I will try other diffs but for now, I am quite happy with the kit. My worry was that with a tight diff it would understeer hopelessly but this is not at all the case. It is meant to have a really tight diff and it works very well with it.

One last thing, i had to make a weight tray to bring it up to our club legal weight. I didn't race the car, but just to keep it in line with the cars I race, I made a custom lead tray that fits the lipo very neatly and ont he bottom it has extra weigths that fit in the chassis slots. Here's some pictures:
