Yoshi,
What are you running now? Please post the complete setup, not just parts and pieces. The setup below is a good starting point. Do everything listed, not just one or two things. If you are trying somebody elses' setup, do everything listed, not just some, including all the shims and ride height. This is what I run at CRCRC with minor changes to adjust for conditions. CRCRC is hard packed clay with very little dust and no loose dirt at all. What is your track like? Is it clay, top soil, or sandy soil? It is abrasive of fairly polished?
