**1) Get a High torque- High Speed Steering servo (I currently use the Futaba S9402, not the most powerful-about 8kg of torque but definitely very fast: .10 seconds!)
**2)change the stock dry-cell four pack with a hump back rechargeable pack (hump pack is better because it keeps the center of gravity right, bit of a race tip there )
3) Get a new pipe
4) Slightly more powerfull throttle servo (put that behind the steering servo in you 'priority list')
5)Stock air filter isnt heavy duty enough for me so i am gonna switch to motor saver filter-1/8th buggy version
**6) Put diff oil in your differentials (I put 1.000 CS in the rear, 5.000Cs in the front and 7.000 in the center)
Don't bother with carbon fibre...it wont increase your lap time enough for it to be worth it...although it sure looks damn good!!
**1, 2 and 6 are the more important ones

done the batterys,
belive it or not the two servos don't seem to have a prob but will prob get upgraded. information on suspension set ups and theroys behind them would be a great help.
as for diff oil a few guys have said 3:3:5 (front:center:rear) or 3:1:5,3:1:7

For racing 5k,7k,1k in the diffs is the norm.
For tight tracks use the outboard lower shock mounting holes, caster shims behind the upper arms , Ackerman on the inboard holes, 40w fluid in the front shocks and 30w in the rear will get you pretty close, ride height set at driveshafts level or slightly below level,and a high torque steering servo is a must..I use a KO 2144.
This set up is for an indoor clay track...for outdoor I use the inboard shock mounts and pick the ride height up to slightly above level.
