My Supra's too fast!
Just got my very fist Char-G today and it was a Supra with 3.0 upgrade. Problem is that it's TOO fast and it always flips over on turns. I tried switching over to the 1.0 motor but that was waaay too slow. I noticed the 3.0 came with both a white and black gear, I'm using hte black one now but I'm curious as to what the white one will do to it. Would it be wise getting a 2.6 or a 2.2? Thanks for your input.

Also, what's the white adjustable tab underneath the car and what does it do, and my car seems to loose responsiveness to left hand turns as power goes down, at the end unable to turn left at all. Is this normal?

you could also get some harder tires that don't get as much traction

Get another motor. 2.6 or lower, I use 2.6 on my supra and it's great, although most other people believe 2.2 is the way to go.
The white adjustable tab underneath your car is to adjust you car's stright path, just leave it in the middle and your car should travel realatively stright.
The white pinion gear that comes with your 3.0 is for bit RACERS, your car is a bit CHAR-G, so the white one wouldn't fit properly in your car.
hope this helps......

Thanks for the input guys, I'm still having trouble with the left turns though. The wheels turn right on command but its sluggish turning left, and when power is low it doesn't respond at all. Any ideas?

Another thing you might do is something to tighten up the front suspension so the car won't sway as much into the turns. Either with a stiffer top plate, or with one of the spring mods from QFM.
BTW, the springs are actually replacement springs for HO slot-car pads, just in case you don't have access to purchasing them at the QFM site.
