The car comes without tyres. Maybe someone on your track has some old tyres laying around which you can use for break in.

the car comes with a pretty set of wheels.. no rubber.. lol Its useful for setup however.. you can use them to set the car up for long mains.. I set the car up with .2-.5mm ride height with the bare wheels.. that way you don't bottem out when you run out of tire.. Just run jaco or whatever tires your local track/HS supports well..

anyone switch to the new Aluminum Shocks? I have heard a few complaints about the stock plastic ones... I even heard of people putting 720 shocks on their NT1's, this true?
