Default '03 LTA 50 tire and carb?

Couple questions. For the guys that go to the sand, how many paddles do you run on these quads? Have an extra set of stock tires that I'm going to take to Skat Trac to be turned into smoothies and rear paddles. Just not sure how many paddles to have them put on for this little thing? Second question is about the carb, what are my adjustments to improve low end , off the line? I have a K&N filter w/outerwear, rejetted, Second pilot removed, FMF pipe and oil injection blocked off. Seems to hesitate just a little off the line and can't remember what to adjust, the fuel air or the needle?

As far as the carb, It shouldn't take much expierementation on the fuel/air (if it has one) or the needle.
I been in sand. I feel that more HP can handle more traction.
I went to glamis with a LT230 and 300ex both with bald stock tires. Low HP and no traction was a winning combo for us.
IMO, If paddles are needed, I'd stick with a 4 paddle. 5 max.

Thanks. Yeah I'll try a 4 paddle first. He was out there last seon when it was bone stock, on stock tires and on flat ground it did ok. But if he didn't have any momentum he would get stuck on small hills, spinning the tires. Haven't been out since the mods and want him to go more places with us. More floatation is key out there and with a little grab hope it helps. Paddles help anything, just don't want too many. Saw on here someone else had put paddles on their kids 50 so, was hoping that there were experience with these.
