Nitro Racer Extended Issues And Parts

Hi all,
imi still waiting to complete the series and are most likely to stop at issue 64, to avoid further rip off, but i was wandering what exactly the uprated parts are?
Regards
Greg

Greg, having not got this series i cant be certain but the common upgrades for rc cars of this type are:

Motor tweaks
Gearbox & dif tweaks
Gearbox & dif ratio changes
Aluminium parts such as heat spreaders
Lightened parts such as drive shafts/wishbones
Better adjustable syspension
Change of air filter
Fit stabalisers (like a rollcage)
Make every nut & bolt annodised (this is aways a popular mod)

Theres loads more, but thats a selection. Obviously these parts can be purchased seperately from the mag! Most of them will cost less than one issue too! If you need help fitting them or choosing, then just post a thread here and somebody will advise you...

My 2pence's worth

Having completed this series i can tell you its best to stop at 61 and buy the tuned pipe,wheels,suspension off fleabay as the upgrades you get really are poor.
anyway heres the list from 62 onwards.
62-tuned pipe
63-foam bumper
64-5 spoke wheel,slick tyre,foam insert
65-manifold for tuned pipe
66-spring for shock+2 hub bearings
67-5 spoke wheel,slick tyre,foam insert
68-spring for shock+2 hub bearings
69-5 spoke wheel,slick tyre,foam insert
70-spring for shock+2 hub bearings
71-porsche bodyshell
72-porsche decals
73-5 spoke wheel,slick tyre,foam insert
74-spring for shock+2 hub bearings
75-spare std chassis
