Hello,

When I run my car (stock HPI Nitro rs3 rtr 3 evo) with the body on sometimes the acceleration is a lot more slugish than other times. I believe what is happening is the body moves around a little bit and the exhaust pipe is not long enough to always go through the hole. This would then lead to a build up of exhaust gasses under the body and chocking off the air supply. I have thought of a few potential solutions to this issue such as cutting more holes in the body (I'd like to avoid this one if at all possible) or somehow making the exhaust pipe longer. What is the best way of fixing this?

Thank you for your help
 
If you think the exhaust is getting blocked, you could throw a deflector on the stinger to make it longer. Tower has them, as does just about anywhere. This would keep your ride a little cleaner, too.
