17.5 is very slow on 1s with incorrect gearing
What spur/pinion/tire size (i.e. rollout) are you running ?

Do you have to use SXT3.0, or can you use something decent?

Thanks for the help,will try taller fronts this sunday and more time with the compound

The car pushes on exit,feels fine at entry and mid corner
Went stiffer on the center spring and car was nervous and twitchy,dialed the rates back a little and ran more expo then the push showed its ugly head on the corner exit
Also tried 20 and 30 k in the tubes and the car started to lift the inside rear tire on corners,Its gota be something iam over looking,the guys i run with r using the green and blue combo and run fine.The car is bind free and flat,no tweaks in the chassis Thanks for the quick response

Yes its a track rule

Can also try more camber, and caster

Usually set camber so front tires wear flat

tThe tires r cut 41.5 rear and 40.5 front now,if I run a taller tire up front will it loosen up the rear traction?Will it give the car more overall steering?The car is a little loose in the ass now,does not seem plated.Good idea with the camber and caster.right now its at 5 degree blocks and about
.5 on the camber anything close to 1 the car gets real hard to drive clean and consistent.Thanks to all for the help.will keep at it and have fun doing so

Start with a 3' turning circle, open it up if to hard to drive
If the rear is edgy, don't sauce full front

Remember
The idea is to get the tires and sauce good for 8m
Not the first few laps

Thanks for the tips Redbullfixx.The car is decent the full 8min,and consistent,it just dosent seem like its fully hooked up,and nearly as planted like the other cars I run wilh.I will add some camber and caster and open the turning circle a bit more,I would say its a little over 3 feet now,close to four
The rear gets a full sauce job,the fronts get a little less then a half on the inside rim.Might try some blues on all four corners this sunday,my x-ray liked themThanks for the help

Also
check your tires every run
If an edge peels up, handling will be inconsistent

I do rotate them every run,never checked the edges,great tip

Thanks again fir the help

where do you measure the turning circle? internal wheel or external?

I use the outside or external wheel

Outside wheel for me, too. I wait until the track is clear, then set the car parallel to one wall, touching it, do a half circle, then set my foot up against the car, marking the spot. Then repeat going the other direction, adjusting the EPA for the same circle going right or left.

It's always best to describe the amount of steering throw you are using with a turning circle as opposed to some percentage of adjustment on the radio, since the percentage depends on the radio, servo, steering linkage, and wheelbase-- all of which vary from car to car.

Last weekend was the first weekend I ran an Aluminum Chassis on a 1/12 scale car on black carpet

It was also the first time I ever enjoyed driving a 1/12 scale car on black carpet.

I'm so happy i bought mine, and if anyone is thinking of getting one, I give it my best recommendation. McFactory Chassis' are the bomb when it comes to black carpet.
