Default Modifieing my Team tc3.....

I have just bourght a Team tc3 it has some hop ups such as - a factory team chassis- a set of springs- alli wheel hexs-an alli drive shaft-alli heat sink battery strap and lots of other blue hop ups.......

Im thinking about a motor heat sink, or mayby some more spur gears to add to the two i already have... i would be happy if u could tell me wot kind of hop ups would be good for my car..bearing in mind i am a regular club racer.

First of all, BIG OL' PICTURE man!! I am lucky I have DSL or it would have taken forever! To answer your question, I think you mainly need the spur gears. Get the motor heatsink only if you feel that the motor heats up too much after a run. Other than that, I think you're set. Do you want the car to just look better?

Oh yeah, maybe different sets of tires.
