DARKWAV's E-firestorm setup:
- Brushless system (because it's fun)
- T-Bone bumpers (rear bumper especially)
- Gear Diff Oil (if just for bashing than 30K or 60K is great because it doesn't seep out so quick)

If racing, also get:
- Pro-Line tires to match track surface conditions
- Softer springs
- 25 wt shock oil

Stiff springs in back good for bashing to support the heavier rear-end of the truck. But i've been told ...generally speaking... softer springs are better in back for racing, perhaps it is more for improving traction than anything else I'm guessing. I'm not much of a racing expert though, only been out a few times myself.

Good points for this setup, figured Id post it here.
