Default Race E-Revo what has to be done?

I have a erevo that was a nitro and now is a full bl mamba revo with the plastic chassis

I would like to get in to racing 1/8 buggy with it ( we have a 1/8 class that is buggy&monster truck mix, maybe next year it will split but not sure)

I know a 1/8 buggy would be best but i have a revo and would like to hop it up

so what are some things i could do to it besides to change the ecs
I only want to run 4s so what springs should i use?
the stock servo"s are strip so now im going with 1 Solar D772 (or do I need 2 of the servos?

thanks for any info/links

You probably want two servos. Put thicker oil in the truck too, better handling for the track, and the stiffest, or close to the stiffest springs you can find. (my recollection recalls that the stiffest revo springs still are sorta soft.)

For racing, get a set of truggy tires.

That class would be fun to watch lol. 4S racing, oh yeah lol. I would also suggest sway bars, to help tune in the corners.

Center diff.. Anti roll bars.. Stiffer springs.. Play with your setup LOTS.. Race orientated truggy tires..

IMO That's it really. Mine is way way way way more hopped up than that, but you don't NEED it to be.
