MAD RAT Noob

[gargreen7]

Hey guys, just got my first RC, got myself a Ansmann Mad Rat just for fun and a bit of bashing.

im a total noob and dont know the the thing inside out. im wanting to make the car a bit better and upgrade some parts.

i've already got some harder springs all round and ordered some new bumpers but what else will i need?

the more simple you can make the answer the better untill i get some knowledge on RC. links would be real helpful too

thanks guys

Howdy & welcome
The 1st thing i,d upgrade would be a full bearing set.

they make the bits spin easier, motor works less hard, less heat, batteries last longer - longer runs. cannot believe these cars do not come with the bearings.
Uncle Nick he will sort you out with the Battleaxe you will see, take out the bushings and put in the bearings, lots of smiles
