So two weekends ago we went to our cabin which is all sand. Anyways back home in the grass it had nice even power all the way through the power curve. Up at our cabin though, it had great low end power from a dead stop I could get the tires to spin. When it hit second it just dropped I had absolutly no power, it went from screaming to a brrrrrrrr. What could it be I was thinking either its shifting to early or its to rich. I tryed to lean it out a little but then it began to over heat. I have no clue what to do please help.

You could try to richen the LSN to compisate for the top end over heating
 
Your going to have to keep playing with the HSN till you get it right. If you ease on the throttle instead of hammering it and it runs good through the rpm curve then you need to lean some more. Keep tinkering with it till you get it. Its a pain, but hey.... thats nitro
 
Okay well monday just me and my dad are going there for ten days so I will try and see if I can get the problem to go away. Thanks for all your help.
