I have just recently got a Rush EVO any tips?

come on guys!... he needs 2 know stuff!... jus tell em sumthin!

uhmmmmmm run it?

Get a fail-safe. I have a HPI Nitro MT2 and I bought a fail-safe. You will need that.

thats what i said ina' pm....2 get a fail safe!

failsafe and fuel filter first, then think about firm rear springs or firmer oil in the rear. 6V hump pack would be good to get before you start to do a lot to it - gives the servos a power boost from the 4.8V AAs, and lasts ages between charges. Then I would suggest strengthening areas before putting performance parts on. Start with the diff (hd middle gear, hd diff shafts, ajust. diff springs), get some nice (and expensive) shiny CVDs, alum. hexes...and the carbon fibre brake disk is good, as is the hd disk hub it mounts on... this is just off the top of my head, look at the big thread for more!

If you look a few pages down the forum, theres a 10 page 'rush evo hop ups' thread, it has everything about most area's and parts to replace and just general advice. Take your time to read it ALL, and you will know a lot more about the car. Very useful.

fuel filter and rear turnbuckles are definitely a must plus the diff.

get a hump pack battery for your reciever. i put one on my evo and it can spin the wheels when i mash the throttle offf the line. and a a hi torque steering throttle

Failsafe (as has been said) and Throttle Return Spring first. Then check out some of the items on my Rush site.
