I'm running a CC SV2 esc and a 5700 KV motor on 3s 15 pinion 88 spur, and I can't get it to hook up and run strait at full throttle... any tips?

Dirt? Street?

What are you running on. 3S in a blitz is gonna be pretty gnarly since it's a light truck.
What tires are you using?

Stocks are pretty good on the street.. they make a cool squeal sounds.

We dig the Pro-line Trenchers as good all around tires. They hook up in a lot of places, and pretty durable.. you won't wear them out too quick.

3S 5700 on a Blitz is going to be pretty hard to put down on dirt except on blue groove... so I am just going to post a paved set-up... this is for going fast straight with a Blitz, not for road course racing or off roading....

==========

1. Pro Line Street Fighters Front and Rear M2
2. AKA Blue Med Inserts rear, AKA Black Hard Front
3. Paragon Rear Tires only, most likely you'll have to go to Grand Motorsports Light Traction compound
4. Lock Diff with JB Weld
5. Neg 2 degrees rear camber
6. Zero front camber
7. 4 degrees rear toe
8. Zero front toe
9. CA glue Front Outer rib
10. Turn steering endpoints down as far as possible while leaving enough to turn the way you like
11. Battery all the way to the rear
12. Slipper- less than 1 foot of slip but not locked
13. Arms level front
14. Bones slightly below level
