I have recently gotten a Xmod 67 camero SS and it spins out when you turn to the right. I was wondering what would fix this, maybe the bb LSD, or awd? Thanks for your time, later.

Put the AWD in and you'll get a little better traction.

Plus, once your tires get dusty, they loose alot of traction. Try wiping them off after a little while of runnin'.

One last thing....better driving. :-)

I think its the driver then. Not the car. :???:

I have a small army of Xmods and they all (the ones that are running) turn and control just fine.

Check to see if you have a wig caught up in the alxes. :search:

i notice that mine turns better one way than the other. try centering the steering horn. then fiddle with the trims on the controller. if it's still stuffed take it back.
i used to be cool

Thats good suggestion. Take it back. Drive it in front of the sales person if you have to, but if it continues to do it, take it back.

But check the trims on the controller first.

i messed with the trims and i got it to drive a bit better but it still dose it . last night i got to run it in my firends pole barn , and in the midle of the run it sarted makeing nosie in the dif when you turn right , but not when you turn left . i have some jb weld some were , so i may just lock the dif untill i can get a lsd from the awd kit . but returning it is always a option , id just rather fix it though .

edit : i think its the rear dif now , it visably gives more power to the right side , even though ther is no hair or other junk . im getind a used red Limited slip dif from a friend soon , so i should be able to get it under control.
