If you route the wires as shown in an earlier post then adjust them so that there is slightly more lead ahead of the front axle than you need to allow full guide movement you should be fine. If the leads stick up in the air too far just push the loops down so that they stick out sideways but make sure they don't foul the back of the headlights when the guide moves.
The picture Below is my Nissan Chassis. It has a different motor but the routing for the motor leads is the same. I am not the best car builder but at least it will give you an idea of what yours should look like.
I think you will find that all NSR tyres need gluing and truing. It is far more important for the tyres to be true when running no mag on a wood track. If the tyres aren't true the back of the car will bounce and you will lose grip.
At the club where I race on a wooden track we have handout tyres for Slotit Group C and we use Slotit SIPT1207F22 tyres.
They are designed to be used as handout tyres for the Slotit Group C championship. The diameter is 2mm less than the standard Slotit F22 tyres so that they stretch more when you put them over the wheels. This means they grip the rim harder so that the tyre doesn't slip and doesn't need gluing or truing.
These tyres should be fine for a beginner, particularly if you don't have a tyre truer but it would be a good idea to check with other club members as well because the surface can vary a lot on different wooden tracks.
