Do you have pics of the body? If not it looks like a Nitro Rustler.

Well this truck is really ment for off-road and not pure speed. The Jato is the truck built for speed.

u may wana check all the bearinngs and bushings to see ifthey are seized or spin freely aswell as leaks in the tank and replace fuel tubing and run a fuel filter and if theyres bushings replace with bearings

and also check the clutch....if it hasntbeen used for a long time the spring may have weakened/snapped
