Well.... it was a bit of a problem but since it was my first race i didn't tinker with the car too much.... i mainly wanted the track time for the experience.
looking at the front knuckle i adjusted the link to the closest hole to the wheel hub... made only a little improvement IMO.
next: i need a different servo, the stock one is far too slow comparing to what I've seen. might also want to get a stronger servo and adjust the links even closer to the wheel hub.
this should improve it.
