Just got my B44.1 finally done and out on the track (OCRC indoor clay). They had just re-done half of the track so it was loose in parts (takes a few days to groove up) and I am running Jconcepts gold barcodes front and rear. ESC is a SXX TC Spec V2 and motor is an 8.5 turn LRP. Geared pretty low because I'm new to running mod (and never run 4WD before).

The first thing I noticed is even though I didn't have any drag brake set (or maybe 1 out of 10) but off jumps, the car really wanted to endo.. I know there is alot more weight in the front on a 4WD car than a 2WD Buggy (which is what I am used to driving). Anyone know how to aleviate that problem. What is the best way to hit jumps in a B44 and downside a jump without sticking the flat bumper into the ground.

Also, on the loose sections of the track (which I know will groove up) the car seemed really squirlly (to be expected a little) but even on the half of the track that they had left in tact and had a good line on it (like the sweeper after the straight away), the rear end of the B44 would spin out around turns.

Anyone have any advise on what I should look at first. Rear diff? front diff? Too loose, too tight? I really have no idea of how loose or tight diffs in the front and/or rear affect the car.

I tried making the rear springs looser to give it some more rear traction. I think that helped a BIT but they had timed practice tonight so I only got about 8 minutes in to practice with it by that point.
