hi mate,

some of the main things to look for hop up wise would be an alu motor clamp but these are very hard to get hold of.. id definatly get some springs, the most common used are green, silver or blue on the fron end and mainly red or pink on the back.. not sure about modifacations or building tips as mine come new but built.. but id take a look at the review on the car jimmy did ..

the guys to see about set ups would be people like phil sleigh or somebody.. also for youre motor gearing the kit xx4 worlds edition comes with a purple spur gear which is 84 tooth, on the average size track it would be 20 ? to start off with ??.. but in the review jimmy has done this is stated ..

" I was advised at this point to swap the kit 84t spur gear (purple) for a smaller 82t (yellow) spur, this is im told to prevent the spur from touching the chassis under (very) heavy landings, this may not be necessary on the re-release but from what I’m told it is the choice of a lot of drivers anyway "
