Hi Gang. First let me tell you I love my Super!!!!


Only one problem.... when I nail it in a straight it wants to spin sideways and suggestions. Diff is good tires seem too grab well just wants to slide. Is the Chassis too high off the ground? Lower center of gravity needed?


I am running the OS 15 non pullstart motor


Thanks
Jeff

Try thicker shock oil.It did wonders for the traction on my Rs4 3 SS.Mine would start to spin at high speed when the rear tires broke lose and the thicker shock oil fixed it

What you describes seems like a few things.

1. I believe the HPI SN have droop screws. Check and make sure they are even on all corners

2. Could be that the shock lengths are not the same.

3. Check to make sure that there is no bind on any wheel.

4. Check your wheel alignments, toe, camber/caster

5. Check your chassis for tweaks

Sounds like a lot of things to check. Of course, I could be way off.
