Went racing for the first time with the mini since the national champs a couple years ago, first time i ran it since last year, i dont know what happend, but it wouldnt corner, i would turn, and the rear end would just spin round on it, if i slowed down i could roll through it and then get on the power, but it would also roll over when spinning out,

the track surface was astroturf, at an indoor sports centre, but here in nz we cant use any hopups or anything, so its basic kit m03, the only thing we can do is sway bars and bearings,

any help would be cool
cheers

are you running a lipo ??

try adding some weight to the rear of the car , cut 1 coil off each of the springs and add 100,000 shock oil inside the stock plastic shocks

The car that won our 6 uurs race was running kit shocks
