Find the right tyres for your surfaces, that's the biggest goal.
Going from pink mediums to KSE softs transformed my car.

Everything else, just replace it with the VRX version when/if it ever breaks. They're pretty tough.

There are different types of rear body mounts, the hooked type or one using body clips, it's a personal choice of what you prefer really.

Spares:
Motor plate
Front wish bones
King pins
Wheel nuts
E clips.
High tensile screw set
Ball cups
Body clips
Spur
Set of mounted and tried wheels and tyres


The only thing I've broke are bodies and a rear motor plate.


Have fun, I am.

yep motor plate for me as well seems the only thing that i get broken. just carry some spares like a arms rear axel but mainly will be your tyres that makes a world of diffrence to the way your car will handle. then again you get those who just dont give a monkeys and run anything that they can and seem to get round ok depends on what level you want to play at

It's the ball and socket design that means something needs to be plastic but if that didn't break something more expensive might in the event of a crash.
