This is my first time racing 8th scale truggy what kind of spare parts should i have on hand.

i got some of tjhe main parts i think would break or go bad or wear out.

i have

-steering blocks
- caster blocks
- rear axle carriers
- clutch shoes
-clutch shims
-upper shock bushings
- extra shock seals
- arms
-outer hing pins
- the aluminum wheel hex extender things
- axle pins
- wheel nuts


i know i am not going to be able to get parts at the track. so im planning ahead. i also know that truggy are built very well after seeing others go through larger crashes at other races.


and this is all for a rc8t championship edition.

thanks chris

Fast , lots o jumps (launchers, joey style),baby bristol burm, step up, step down , no off camber angled jumps 300' away though please straight aways belong far away or down the middle of the track at an angle , just my opinion

and maybe try to place the technical areas underwear the lights are placed
