I am after advice on what parts to buy for circuit racing.

Im after advice on:

Option parts for it: Ball diff etc

Body Shells: I like the Pug 205 as used to have one but dont know if they handle well?!

Tyres for Maritime carpet?

I have seen some videos on Youtube from Chequered Flag racing that are good for the build up of the car

Mark,

The car is good for £20.

Just one thing, have alook at the servo saver.

In my opinion the standard kit ones have always been crap.
I cant really see from the pic what type it is and they can take a bit of a battering in a Dave !!!

We all use Kimborough ones.
