Default Needing oval setup help

Ok guys I need any and all advixe for racing on a oval track. I know it may be hard to give unless ya see or know the track I guess but anything may help me out. I am totally new to nitro trucks. I just purchased this truck http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...DME:L:RTQ:US:1 With the list of parts added to the truck is there anything else I might want to put on there. I do know the track is pretty tacky, they wet it down lightly after ever qualifying heat and after each class main. Are there any tricks to making them turn better, after watching them run for 3 weeks now it looks like the the truck push or plow pretty bad on entry and I prefer to drive a looser setup than most.

So any tips or trick ya have shoot them at me and recommend any parts I might need to add to my new toy. TIA guys

Nice grab, I run pro line bow tie tires all the way around. Then its just a matter of driven the track. Might check into shock oils too, change them all to like 30 weight oils. Outside of that, just hit your marks and be smooth.

Do RC setups work close or similar to a real car setup? What I mean is if I were to run lighter oil I guess to soften the RF will it make it looser on entry? It seems alot of guys were pushing really bad, of course that could have been them just simply over driving the corners. Also does anyone know of a sprint car chassis that maybe the RC10GT running gear can bolt onto, The Sprints looks wicked on the track and seem like they would be a blast to drive.
