Took the truck out tonight before it got dark and the tire seem to be doing their job. Obviously no balloning and I got it up to 67 mph a little over 1/2 throtle but it starts too drift and is really hard to control and I had to let off. It definatly has alot left in it as I gave it about 3/4 throttle going 50mph and you could hear the tires break loose and it started sliding sideways so there is lots of power still availiable.The hitec servo has a little play in the gearbox and it hard to get it to go perfectly straight I checked 5 hitech servos and all had a little play. I wonder if I should have some toe in or toe out maybe to help with stability a little. I also think I am going to have to put verticle stabilizers and/or low down force wing. I think a giro is in order also. I am not going to do any vids until I get atleast 80 mph and I know it can do it but need to figure how to control it some how. It did do a 50 mph power slide and it fliped it over wheels got a little scuffed but nothing else was hurt glad I used this jacked up body, the packing tape held it on good lol. After about 6 60+ mph passes the batts still have 4 volts left in them.

like 1 degree rear toe-in will help track straight. for straightline speed fronts should be neutral
