Had a problem this week with GTB on Carpet ...
Car has worked flawless for last few weeks ..Until this weekend ..The car would run for 2 minutes and the start surgeing on the track ...Full throttle to no to medium all by it self ..No steering issues at all ...Changed out reciever reciever pack and even servo and Personal Transponder nothing worked ...So yesterday I decided to ground the speedo to the Chassi ...Took a piece of antenna wire and a eyelet off a brush and bolted the wire to the crossbrace and soldered the other end to the neg- side of speedo and all my problems went away ...Made 10 more runs without the first hint of a problem ....Hope this helps someone else out ...It was a 4300 system w GTB ...

Exactly what made me think of it ....Especially on the old loop carpet..Static Guard and ground straps...

I had problems like that years ago. Ever since, at least once a night I spray a little static guard on the chassis....
