my nitro rustler runs fine at low speed but as soon as i give it full throttle the truck just spins out of controll. my tires are bald but my tracking looks ok, any suggestions on what it could be?

I have NO idea, but I was wondering if this si a common problem for other rustler owners.

Uh you just said it, you got bald tires, thats why your loseing traction.

it could be bald tires or the slipper clutch is a littler to tight

Probably your bald tires like most people said. I also have a rusty. I have the stock tires that are bald now and they always go out of control. I also have dirt hawgs and Mashers and they get great traction and they never go out of control. So my prediction is tires. BTW If you are still only have stock tires (im not sure if you do) than get new ones they will just keep becomeing crappier.

dumpsty run it on 5 % for breakin then what every you please after not going over 25%

cossie

5% dont be foolish run it on 8tanks on a rich carb settin using 20% o donnell or tornado fuel

How do you even start the engine with 5%? Must take ages. I just use 16% for break in and for the first half gallon, then just 20% the rest of the way.

probably can't with a pull start, an electric starter works wonders!
