Ran mine the other day changed the gearing back to 15/55 from er.. something else, can't remember had better acceleration, but prefer higher top end.

Also got an ally rear arm mount as when I do a special landing (crash) the pin comes out of the mount and the dogbone and spring go flying. So had enough of that and got an upgrade.

Mmm, ally.

What would you guys say are essential upgrades? i heard an rpm bumper is a good idea, but is it much better than the one that is on it atm? and also i have heard uprated shock towers are a must, which ones?

I'm pretty sure that's an RPM bumper on it already ;)

It'll say rpm on the bottom if it is, even if it isn't rpm it still looks the same. Does the same job by protecting the shocks.

I'm glad I've got one on mine...
