Default ill handeling xxx t

hello all im new to the sport and just started raceing 1/10 stock trucks (xxx-t). i have praticed a lot in the last 3 month but i keep haveing a problem with my steering expecialy on my hair pin turns. the truck gives a tight in lose of feeling. it dose it even when im soft on the gas. when i get into the turn she just wants to slide up the track and when i try to correct or slow down the truck wants to spin out and get lose i know these are oval track terms but its the best i can do to decribe the problem. the track i run at is a hard packed track with a little sand in some areas but none where it would effect me. im running proline blades m3 on the front and proline hole shot T m3 on the back for tires so i dont think its my tires. any help would be great and i would be greatful thank you for any replays

Default RE: ill handeling xxx t

There are a lot of variables that will help . Tire and foam combinations , caster, camber, toe in/out, shock oils /springs , ride height , along with a few other details . If you are on a track that doesn`t have big jumps I`d mess around with ride height it will make a big difference . But since I can not see what is actually happening I`d say the best way to get help is to talk to some of the regulars there and they should be able to put you in the right direction . I race at a track that sounds like the same conditions and we use the same type of tires all day but use different ones with different foams towards the end of the day . Are you loosing steering in or out of a turn or both ? Are you pushing just on power or all together ? How do you have your slipper set up ?
