If you are on the right tire maybe your diff is too tight or maybe you need a little more throttle control.
anybody have a good setup for wcrc? I seem to be lacking rear end traction especially on power. I am using the steve hartsen setup as of now. green front springs, white rear. the car wants to spin out fairly easily on power. seems to not have enough forward bite.
any help would be great

Are those lunsford turnbuckles in the front and stock in the rear?
i have a new kit on the way and im not sure if im going to put on my lunsfords turnbuckles from my current car because i think they rub the rear shock a little more than stock. But, i want to get rid of some blue.

also closed cell foams take a few runs to break in properly, and too hard of a foam can feel loose on power.
another thing would be to add a washer on your rear u-brace, at times that has helped me.

+1 for me, 1.4X3's are the BEST I have tried, even better than a set of avids I tried. I run on high bite clay and I swear by the esc in the tray behind the battery. But it works for me so I am leaving it there. I think I wanna try those factoryone shock bushings next. Otherwise I am very happy so far!
This is the set-up I am using, only difference is I use a lil more weight, 1/2oz up front and 1/2oz in the back

I don't mean to bring this whole debate back up again, but adding a washer on the rear makes the car be less loose?

I'd recommend to take a look at the SC10 4x4 thread, we have the same debate over there: http://www.rctech.net/forum/12439270-post34777.html

Raising the inner stud (adding a washer) will lower the roll center. Lower RC = More roll in a turn = More weight transfer = More traction to a point.

He, or any of the other seasoned racers can help you learn how to check your slipper. I'm still a little rusty on things or I would offer. There are just better people that show up at the track to go get a little help from. Sorry if you're a seasoned racer and this is old hat for you.
If I recall correctly, many peopple there race Green (F)/ White (R) or Black (F) / Green (R). 30 AE front/ 27.5 Rear. 1.6 x 2 pistons. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

I was just at WCRC this weekend and I just bought a b4.1 converted to b4.2. There is a guy who works the counter, I think Joe (not Hector), there on Sundays that races a b4 and b44. When he's not too busy at the counter, ask him to take a look at your car. I also agree with the other posters that you should look at your slipper.
