Default HELP! WHATS NEEDED

Hi all, just bought a b4ft. I havn't raced 2wd for many years and couldn't drive them then .
Is there anything i need to do to the car, or is it driveable straight out of the box (handling wise)?
It will be used on uk tracks in the mid west region.
Sorry for all the questions, but what motor is best to run in 2wd as well?
Cheers
Andy

Silver rear springs blue front. 30wt oil all round.
Plastic chassis like Ian said.
The usual tyres Schumacher yellow dry ballistic green wet.
1 degree anti squat 0 degree's if its bumpy.
1 degree camber
the rest is mostly stock.


Thats about it really this is how i run my car. Other people may have diffrent opinions. It works fine for me.

Does the car come with the alloy front hinge pin brace? If not get one of them. Front bulk heads break with anything bigger than a slight front end tap otherwise. With the alloy brace I haven't had 1 break!
