Okay.. just got an HPI Micro RS4. It has:
Carbon FIber Team Epic EXO (Motek) Chassis.
Speed 300 Big Block motor.
Aluminum front ball diff.
Hitec HS-81 Servo.
Servo saver with adjustable steering linkage.
Steel front shocks with Pink springs.
Purple aluminum adjustable rear shock.
Futaba MC 210CB ESC.
7.2 Battery Pack.
Any advice on changing anything or comments?
I am a newbie and this is my first micro.. I will be racing on Thursday and want the car to be competitive...

Sell it and get a nitro, lol. No I am treing to get into electric myself. I guess you have to go by the rules of the track. But I am sure you could probably go with a bigger battery pack and a bigger motor that would fit. Good luck in your race and trying to hop up your ride.

Hey Team17... what is your name? My name is Obvioulsly Freddy.. I am working on my 2nd. car for Thursday... I hope to get it done.. ordered parts from my LHS and they are trying to get everything for early tomorrow... I just have a rolling chassis... need electronics... But my orig RTR is what I'm racing .. I modified it a bit.. Team Orion Elite Modified motor... Super Rooster ESC and JR S3000 reciever...with a Team Orion 7.2 Volt Battery pack.. and some new foams..
The other RS4 that I ordered.. I didn't like the way it ran.. my orig with mods.. kicks it's ass!!!!!
I've never raced before so I'll probably trash the car(s) ..... but I am interested in racing up by you or even practicing if they allow... I'll talk to you thursday about it....

i would get an 1/8 scale buggy next. only experiencing one will justify the bad-ass'ness of owening an buggy.

my next and immediate purchase will be a 1/10th on-road... don't know which car is best and what is available.. any suggestions.. Money is not really a factor... Thanks..
