also if you have trouble with going strait(straitest path is shortest) especially if you are using rwd with a high powered motor its best to put hard slicks in the front and soft slicks in the back...once you get a certain speed you can't steer very much so you go straiter...oh and you can also put your steering trim down too
i believe rwd is the best setup too...look at all the top fuel dragsters they all use rwd and they do like 5-6 second 1/4 miles

a monoshock helps you get traction in the rear end because it keeps the tires flat on the ground unlike the stock ones
I actually use a monoshock that is crazy glued together on very flat surfaces so the rear tires don't even move....this setup allows me to run a 5 cell with a stage 2 motor(sb mags, timing advance weight reduced armature, 11t) and kill like all my friends

oh did i mentioned i don't even use a drive shaft....check out this pic of what i use it doesn't even spin just doesn't let the gear dislodge at all...i can't go in reverse though so it ain't for regular racing.
oh it doesn't weight anything...ala whittled golf tee...hehe
