what needs to be upgraded on the slash?

receiver/radio and paint job (if you're running with other Slashes). Nothing else. Also develop patience for Traxxas bashers.

Sure, if you got money to burn. As said before, it doesn't need much in terms of upgrades. If you just *gotta* bling it up with aluminum, you could look into STRC parts too (teamstrc.com)

Yeah, we had a guy at the track this weekend think the same thing, Now he just pulls the screw out of the shocktower and you have to replace it.
There has to be a weak link some where.
Now for the original post, This truck is realy good out of the box but it needs a few more things to make it prefect.
1. Lipo cutoff on ESC
2. Servo saver/ bellcranks, the servo mounted servo saver is pretty lame!!!
3. New radio, traxxas has worn out the TQ radio, they need something more modern on 2.4ghz.

The radio works fine but it is definatly old school. Traxxas has done a great job updating almost their entire line (Thanks god for hex head screws!!!) but the radio has to be next on the list.
