I need help with my evader st. I run on a small oval carpet track and my truck is real loose. I have foam tires but they are hard I think blue. I use fox tire compound on the back tires. I tried without and also some on the front. Neither ways work. I have tried different springs and I have 40 weight oil in the shocks. Please help. Also where can I get foam tires for an evader st. This truck was not made for indoor racing but it is my only option without buying a whole new vehicle. The losis and the t4's run good on the track.

You should be able to fit Losi and Associated wheels on the truck (Double check that before buying), so foams for them would work. If you can find foam donuts, you can mount your own tires on Evader wheels.

Heres what I use on my T4 on carpet, it should apply to your evader also.
TRC green foams on the LF,RR and LR
TRC blue on the RF
TQ 8 on all tires except the RF
60wt oil and soft springs (I use green) on the LF,RR,LR
90wt and hard spring (I use red) on the RF
Stiffin the RF spring with spacers or screw
This will probably get you in the ballpark and you'll need to fine tune.
Hope this helps.

thanks for the tips. I ordered some green rear tires the guy said they would fit the evader. On the springs are they coded for associate or for something else. I found out that duratrax springs are different then other companies. Theyre yellow are a lot stiffer then team losi.
