Is that the Traxxass(trash-ass) nitro sport. If it is, you bought yourself a real P.O.S. Sorry, dont want to insult your buggy(yes I do),
really, get yourself something good, you deserve it, its X-mas(almost).
A real good place to start is the kyosho MP7.5, I've had one for years and it still beats the crap out of many and without problems.
Try the one with the GX.21 engine. you dont want the GXR.28, to many difficulies where as the GX.21 is race legal little screamer that kicks ass when I've done the modding.
Use the Trashass as a paper waight, but dont put to much paper on it.[:@]
