How much air do you run in your tires? Whats the max psi? What size are
your tires? What gear ratio do you have (differential)?
I have this problem too esp. when the road is wet. I have 31's and max psi
is 50. I now run 40lbs with less spin and hop. I have a RC Dak 4.7 auto 4x4
112" wheel base 3.55 gears.
