Default FG LEOPARD Air filter problem

Hi Guys,
I need help. I run my Leo on bog ground which has a very fine dust and my air foam filter is always blocking after a few laps and then the engine loses power. No fine dust is entering the carb but as I said I can only run a few laps. I then have to change my filter to a new one which is a pain. How can I solve this problem.

Thanks
Damien

Maybe a [link=http://www.oneillbrothers.com/rccar/itemdescription/prefilter.htm]pre-filter[/link] is what you are looking for?

Lars thanks for the advice but I have a Pre filter on as well. It is a TGN Red Neck Air Filter.

Ok, but that is still a foam filter which collects dust as the stock filter does in my opinion The most recommended combination of air filtering i see is stock filter-TGN Redneck-and the prefilter i was linking to. The pre-filter is also water repellent.
