I am not sure which version you have. Personally, I would find a good baseline setup for the track you race at. 90% of the tuning will be the tires, talk to the other guys and use the ones that work for your track. You will probably need to add some lead weight, so pick up a little of that. A ride height gauge might be nice to make sure you where you need to be. After you have a good setup and the right tires, then maybe start looking at your budget and what is the best upgrade. The +8 chassis and the +8 body will run you around $65, so you might want to make sure you need it first. Some people like the shorter chassis better.

- A lot of ppl run the Avid steering rack.

- If you dont have titanium turnbuckles, I consider that a must. The steel will bend fast, at least mine never last more than a race or 2.

- If you start popping of ball cups the rpm ball cups are very nice. A nice trick is to drill a hole in the tops of the cups where you often make adjustments, for easy of access to the hex ball studs. I like them drilled on my inside camber cups because those get messed with the most.

- Brown spring front and green springs rear if you don't have those on the car now. That is pretty standard, some setups put silver in the rear.


Have you bought the electronics yet? I could suggest some really good ones for a low price new. I recently came back to the hobby and wasted money on junk, and found some pretty good stuff for 1/2 the price of the junk.
