I'm hearing the stock RTR servo is slow, and of course the tires are trash. But I'm looking to get away with changing as little as possible on the RTR version of this truck to make it race worthy. I'm not trying to vie for first place, I just want to be competitive.
i drove one and actually the power was very decent and the tires were not all that bad, it just depends on the track you run on , this one had moist clay and they hooked up good enough to race with. but that servo has to go ASAP. i would spend you rmoney on sway bars, garodisc and tires before i messed with the powertrain.
