Default GO .21 idle

I have a GO .21 that has been broke in, I haverun a couple of tanks thru it at speed, and the engine runs good, I just can not get it to idle down correctly.
It takes a couple of seconds to idle down. I have adjusted the idle on the carb with no luck, run the throttle trim down withno luck.
I have other engines that run perfect that I have tuned. I have been running nitro cars for a long time, I know I am just missing something or over looking the obvious. HELP

Also make sure your throttle linkage is releasing to the idle stop, and or you brake linkage is not too tight holding it off idle.
