RE: Upgrades
Do you know what upgrades are available and if so do you know where to buy them? Cause if you cant find parts for it a new car should be bumped into perspective.
Anyway, in general you want lighter and stronger. Stray away from certain aluminum parts and look towards carbon fiber/graphite. A carbon fiber upper deck, CF shock towers, Aluminum shocks, 4mm chassi or lw chassi if there is one available. 4mm is stiffer maybe a tad heaveir and lightwheight would reduce overall mass. Sway bars for added adjustment(if available or not included already). Any high stength or special belts like kevlar or urethane. Also these tend to be the more pricey upgrades New engine, exhaust, Digital highend steering servo, highend analog throttle/brake servo, and ceramic bearing upgrades...
