It will make some difference but not much............if you want to feel a real difference in an ST you need to go digital [:-]

Go Throttle with HS5475MG

Steering with HS5645MG

Not to many mistakes with those to but you will need good batteries

Only sure way to stop it from slipping is remove and clean........... This is an inherant problem with most small block engines. One of the best ways to minimize the problem is to make sure you pinch off the fuel when you shut it off, in front of the carb [:-] this purges the fuel out of the crank case. The fuel that is left in the crank case is what causes the problem [&o] During the hot summer months its a lot less of a problem [)]

M3 is a softer rubber compound and Dirt works is a better all round tire

I have those set of dirt work tires on the one and they are too soft for me when i'm at full throttle the tires expand and it's too hard to keep the car straight and the middle of the tires are bald while the outter tire still has tread. do they make them in a harder rubber...
