Purchased this car about a month ago. It's my first TC. I'm interested in racing this puppy but I was hoping to pick up some insider info on how to soup up the car to make it more competitive my first time out. When I went to the local track noone seemed to have much respect for HPI in general. Anyone know why this is?

Anyone satisfied/dissatisfied with their 18ss performance?

Any and all tips and tricks or general knowlede about this kit would be greatly appreciated.
