i think he was aiming more to cheap home mods and not buying the parts.

well clean up the steering by shrinkwrapping the tierods and knuckles and also try the steering resistor mod. it decreases turning radius alot! (i dunno if this might hurt you if you run a 6cell car because if you have a grippy set up the car tends to be twitchy and ofcouse the weight: stupid not full propo servo!) tires helped me alot tho fixing understeer and oversteer problems. the bearings, when properly lubed can make quite a difference in runtime and acceleration and top speed. you can try a penshaft driveshaft. and ofcourse if ur not already, get rechargable batteries!! will be way cheaper in the long run vs reg.
