I felt that same way back when I converted my truggy. It just didn't have it for me. I was only running 4s 1515 1y at the timer. I guess I was expecting something more from the truggy vs the G3R which was the only other comparison I had for it. Well that and the way it ran with the Axial .28 on it was pretty impressive. It was fast but it wasn't quick enough I guess. I unconverted it back for now and plan on trying it again someday. I am interested in how this turns out for you Jeff.

Um - the way I read Brians comments were that the higher weights would put you closer to wheelies, not less likely.

I'm fairly certain that I'll get it tuned - I have faith in oil!!!
