Tips for Beginners:
Before making any changes to the standard setup, make sure you can get around the track without crashing. Changes to your vehicle will
not be benefi cial if you can’t stay on the track. Your goal is consistent laps. Once you can get around the track consistently, start tuning
your vehicle. Make only ONE adjustment at a time, testing it before making another change. If the result of your adjustment is a faster
lap, mark the change on the included setup sheet (make adddtional copies of the sheet before writing on it). If your adjustment results in a
slower lap, revert back to the previous setup and try another change. When you are satisfi ed with your vehicle, fi ll in the setup sheet thor-
oughly and fi le it away. Use this as a guide for future track days or conditions. Periodically check all moving suspension parts. Suspen-
sion components must be kept clean and move freely without binding to prevent poor and/or inconsistent handling.
Painting:
Your Kit requires a clear polycarbonate body. You will need to prep the body before you can paint it.
Wash the INSIDE thoroughly with warm water and liquid detergent (do not use any detergents with scents or added hand lotion ingredi-
ents!). Dry the body using a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Use the supplied window masks to cover the windows from the INSIDE of the body
(RC bodies get painted on the inside). Using high quality masking tape, apply tape to the inside of the body to create a design. Spray (use
either rattle can or airbrush) the paint on the inside of the body (preferably dark colors fi rst, lighter colors last). NOTE: ONLY use paint that
is recommended for (polycarbonate) plastics. If you do not, you can destroy the body! After the paint has completely dried (usually after
24 hours), cut the body along the trim lines. Make sure to drill or use a body reamer to make the holes for the antenna if needed! Use hook
and loop tape to secure the body to the side rails of the vehicle.
