i have the losi mf2 and it was perfect most of our outdoor season but the last couple of races i noticed that when i turned it would swing the whole rear end around. i tried to rebuild the diff, lower the epa thing on the controler, i tried to stiffen the front suspension and turn buckle position....

can anyone help and tell me what is wrong with my car cuz now it is doing the same on carpet and idk

thanks craft

I haven't had any problems with mine, but when I raced my MF1 it did that. Believe it or not all I had to do was make my rear suspention softer..........also make sure to check your toe-in and casters to make sure everything is copesetic. :thumbsup:

Check for damage,bent hinge pins,loose screws,if you've had it apart,make sure you put the same set up back in it.See if the anti squat shims are still there.
Does it do it in both directions?If not something is binding.
Bad wheel bearings can do that also,along with worn/binding CVD's.
Make sure your not running any drag brake.
If you went from mod to stock motor,it may feel that way.
Let us know what you find.
