Sway bars? droop? as for the engine blowing out gaskets, what kind of plug is in that engine? The plug might be to hot for the engine, which cause an advanced timing effect, which make exhaust hotter. Try gearing? Sometime being the fastest car out there makes you slower. Also anti-squat? toe? have you set the car up on a setup station? Or by eye? On-road is much more senitive to changes then off-road, every little thing you do can drasticlly change something else.
ive had my suspension three different ways by reputable racers. as far as tires, ive used 2 different foams, 2 different compound slicks, ofna on-roads, grp on-roads hard, med, and soft.....and ive tried traction compound on the all.
i did get some results but the torque on that motor just breaks-em loose tryin to keep up with the lesser powered buggies i was racing against. and yes, i know some of it is throttle control.
