Stiffened the ride up a bit by putting some Atomic gold springs in. Also I sanded the tires a tid bit.




Painted the wheels that come with the chassis set. I dont think I will use these on there, that silver color just doesnt look like it goes well with a red car. Might be using it for another readyset in the near future. Watch and see.


I have been having a little problem with the rear spur gear slipping while its throttled up. I have tried 0.02 washer behind the front pinion and then also behind the rear spur gear. But I have found with the shim on the rear is tends to not mesh the gear right and ends up binding sort of.




Then became extremely bored the other night, and took some steel wool to my motor and shined up real nice!


Dont look for anything to drastic to the chassis or the body, Im not putting ridiculous money into this one. I want to see how much I can go through before the chassis is torn up and what kind of performance it can do with minimum upgrades.
