Go fast!

Yo, how can I make my car go faster without buying expensive new engines, or ripping it apart? I have the stage two motor set.

dude he said no expensive engines, and if you arent gonna be helpful, dont talk. im new to this hobby too, but that is just common courtesy.

btw, plastic driveshafts, xtra batteries, and other mods are chaep and easy to do. just run a search.

Rocket engines can be picked up for pretty cheap.

Now shut up.

Please, search. The cheapest thing I can think to do would be to add more batteries.

Capt.ArD- I figured out that most of the guys respond to every post just to make there post count go up and most of the time they just argue and get off the topic

it all really depends on how far u actually wanna go with your car... a simple way for more speed is to take the magnets form a "crest spinbrush motor" and put them inside of your Stage 2 motor.. it will give you the top end of your stage2, but with enough torque to spin tires. also you could add 6 cells to your car, that gives it great top end speed and is an easy hookup, you bassicly ass to more batts to the ones that already excist.

some other stuff that cn be done is you could lock up your rear ball diff (come with AWD kit) by tightening the screws.

their are literaly hundreds of things you cold do with your car, so i guess if u want reply with a list of things you want to acomplish, how much you wanna pay, and how far your willin to go (i.e. wanna take the motor out of the car but not tough the elctronics)

hope this helps, i know that when i started with xmods (last year) i thought it was daunting so just take it slow.. hope this helped, btw im on the forums more often then the moderators so just reply to this thread if ya got ???s i love helpin!
