You need to chill a bit first.

Then read the manual.

Then do what it says.

Then come back here and ask more direct questions.

PS. The manual can be found at www.hpiracing.com

the shoes, assuming that they all go for about the same price, shouldn't be more than a few bucks, same as the springs should you need to buy them.

hehe just go kick your cousin and tell him to stay away from your stuff. Respect is a wonderful thing to learn.

Why would you kick him! I think he is a good candidate for HPI Dudes next mechanic!

Strapping your car with a 10.000 volt power supply also helps a little.
