You would have been better off buying a better brand name truggy. If its breaking you need to drive it easier, you may not win if your racing with it, but chances are it isnt a competition level truggy anyway. Just learn how to drive and when you get more money get a better truggy.

What does your local hobby shop supply? What parts do they have available? Losi, Ofna, etc??? I would go with what they have readily available. See what they reccomend.

These are for the savage, but the tuning still applies. For stock needle settings look in the manual for the truck.

Tuning vids.
