Releasing throttle at high speeds kills engine

Here's the easiest thing to do. Once you know for sure the hsn is good, start leaning the lsn until you notice it getting real snappy off the line. You should be able to idle for 5 seconds and go immediately into a wheelie or snappy take-off with no hesitation.

As long as the hsn is open far enough to go full throttle it will have little if any affect on the lsn.
 
If you would like to understand how to tune search on google how to tune nitro engine. and just browse threw a few sites and do some reading trust me its worth it. I'm by far not an expert on tuning but when i first got into nitro i read as much as i could about tuning nitro motors and I've never really had a problem with it

or well shall i say if you would like to better understand tuning and the reasons behind the pinch test but remember the pinch test is just a ball park setting it will still take some fine tuning

I've read tons of stuff man. But unless you actually put it to practical use, the reading is to no avail. No substitute for experience. Just like how everyone said that my HSN was too lean. Even though I understand the concept of rich and lean and what basic effects they would have on the engine, I was not able to understand a technicality like that.
But you are right, reading does help.

The pdf from the first link is pretty good. I've read it before. Good stuff.
