:: Tuning Tips

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 beneficial 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 satisfied with your vehicle, fill in the setup sheet thoroughly and file it away.  Use this 

as a guide for future track days or conditions.  Periodically check all moving suspension parts.  Suspension components 

must be kept clean and move freely without binding to prevent poor and/or inconsistent handling.

Painting:

Your Kit comes with 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 ingredients!). 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 first, 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.
