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.

what is the best way to adjust it so it will start i am still trying to break it in it will only restart when it is still hot. a vx18 it is the blue motor. it is set to run rich but i don't know if it is too rich to even start some pointers would be good i know it is a fast little car i have seen them move.

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