Do other cars at your track behave similarly? You might try increasing your ft. shock oil weight.

How do you attack the jumps? Do you glide over them, or do you blip the throttle just before?
Thanks for the reply banshee, I also run a b4, t4, slash 4x4 and an x-factoy x6 and none of those have the same problem. I will watch next time and see if it slaps. I approach the jumps just same with the other cars (minus the slash).
I will try upping the shock oil in the front and see if that helps. If that somewhat works I amy play with spring rates in the front as well.
I wonder if it may also be over sprung in the rear? maybe to thin a shock oil in the rear?
does that make any sense?
Thanks again.
