try adding weight around the servo area.this will reduce the light feeling under power without affecting the cars balance to much. id start with 20g on top of the servo then slowly add to it from there

Lots of lead weight in the nose area....Rear motor cars need a crap load of weight up front. I think we used to run like 3oz at fastcats and the hobby show race. The Shin Adachi carpet set up on petit rc is a decent base set up. I liked using the long wheelbase and using limiters on the front shocks to help stop on power weight transfer to the rear.
