going to buy an xxxt, do i need any hop-up's???

[GreatWhiteNinja]

Im going to buy an xxxt soon. Ive been mainly a gas racer so this is my first electric race truck. I found out with my last truck (rc10gt) that you need a few stronger parts to make it run a little better at the track. Would there be anything that I would need for the xxxt? I heard its a really good truck but im just doing my homework first. Thanks.

The first thing I would get is a set of Lunsford titanium turnbuckles. The stock steel ones are a little weak. Graphite stuff is nice it you like a more responsive car. A heat sink motor plate is worth the money to pick up as well. Other than that, you can see what you want to add later down the road. :D

Anyone know when the Francis kit is coming out?

If you dont want to wait, then with all the parts you take off and replace with other ones you will have some extra parts incase you break something. Thats a good thing about that but it does cost a lot of money.

You may just want to wait it out, for the Francis Edition, much like I am, comes with everything, for 40$ more than the standard truck, Estimated price: 250. Come wiht all of the graphite(more than 100$ separately bought), Ball Bearing steering, 20 bucks, Titanium Tie Rods, 25 bucks, and the list goes on and on.

I almost forgot, for the shocks it comes with 75, if you buy the same set-up

wait it out
