Will be receiving a used Nitro Rustler in a few days. It has the Pro
.15 engine. This will be my first nitro vehicle. Just wondering what
tips/upgrades anyone has for this truck or to someone new to nitro.
Thanks.

Save yourself money in the long run by upgrading the rear shock tower
immediately!

Anything you can find that you like except Traxxas factory plastic!
Nothing worse than snapping one and replacing it and lightly rolling one
time after you just replaced it and it snaps too!
Been there done that!
