So it was a really short test, because I can't adjust the throttle/brake smoothly, the car often runned off the track.

The main modifications was: I've cutted off the exhaust, now it's just a tube, with a great sound and sooo much power in the engine :)
The carb also needed some modifications, because the engine had too much fuel, now it's better, but in the low rpm it's getting a little bit much fuel.
