i got it for 160 eith shipping and all...finally got it going right, i found a thread in this redcat section, and got the base settings, and tuned it, only issue is that the idle set screw, right below the air fileter, doesent seem to do anything, turns forever in either direction with no change...

Status: offline 		is the os .18 cvrx a really good upgrade for the tornado? cause i just put the one speed trans in my bb and used a 13 tooth clutch bell and it goes but doesnt have much low end power. and the track im gonna be racing is a tight track. im mostly gonna use the buggy to race. i wanna see how much i can pull out of this buggy.

nope, turns forever without changing a thing...

a new issue has arissen, the fact that it willnot start, but i think(with the help of ehroof) that it is the clutch spring, so im gonna check later today if the clutch spring is fine or not, if it needs to be replaced, i may order it and a new car, as the gap isnt changing with the idle set screw...so would i be right to assume that i would need a new carb? if so, could someone point me in the right direction? its a tsunami...how much do they run?$?$?$?
