It has stock .28 pro motor and also stock team associated steering servo sc2008 and a hitech 5945 throttle servo, also came with a rd logics tune pipe, and reedy 1600 hump pack. The truggy has a roto start, should i invest in a bump start?what would be some good hop ups for it in the future? I'm not planning on anything yet till i break stuff/ lol . But i am using my own dx2s with sr3300. Any help would be appreciated. I bought it for $280 with extra set new rear a-arms & extra set of used tires&wheel that were used only for street ( pretty worn out) but the stocks ones still have plenty of life, was this a good purchase- i thought so - but what do you guys think? As soon as i get a chance ill post up some pics , the car is in really good shape btw. :d
 
here is a pic

i think i got it to work. sorry newbie here , trying to figure out how to upload pics.

the rc8t is a tough truck. you should get some good fun with it. you already have it figured out, don't buy anything till you have to. worry about a starter box when you have to get a new engine.
 
thx for the response ohiofordfan, if anything i want to put the jconcepts punisher body, but i am really happy with truggy, i can't wait to take it out to a track, i never been to one so it should be a lot of fun.
