you should seriously read the manual... the car is supposed to be broken in first before driving...

also, post this in the staduim track section...

and its a Duratrax EVADER! NOT EVANDER....


as for the problem, check the spur (big gear that engine is connected to) or clutch bell (other gear on engine). If they rotate fine, check the tranny.
