It's pointless to run with the ribs up front, you need paddles all around. Nice new truck though.

Ribs in front will make it steer better.

well installed the motor in and that thing is F*****g fast as hell. havent been to a beach to try out the paddles yet but hopefully soon. Have to send my JR in to the company beacuse the EPA is all messed up and it wont hit full throtle,with it like this its like trying to use a worse than stock motor 2MPH tops

Now, wait. In the first sentence you said it's super fast. The second one it's super slow. Which is it!?
Oh and try and make a new "profile" thingy on the xs3, people have been doing that recently when stuff like epa doesn't work fully, and getting stuff working again.
