A good radio and servos will do more for you than any aftermarket part available for the car itself.

If youre having trouble tuning, check the glow plug and look for airleaks in the fuel delivery system and the engine...

If I were you, I would focus on getting more horsepower...cause things are always more fun with more power! So either a new engine, or a tuned pipe for the engine you have.

The pipe would be much cheaper, so if you go that route, you could afford a better steering servo...

i would upgrade the servos first , then a better radio, then a engine , just my 2 cents on this subject

havent looked into radio prices lately, but is there a decent radio on the market for less than a c-note? Also, keep in mind, hes in austrailia, things cost alot more there...

Any FM radio with endpoint adjustments would be more than adequate.

the glow plug is brand new and how do you find air leaks

A good digital high speed/torque servo will be the best upgrade you can get. You will notice the difference like night and day, when you go from a stock (cheap) steering servo to a nice race one.!! :thumbs:

i agree with everyone but the power nuts. its not about power, if you wanna make it around the track then get a good radio and some descent servos. then maybe later, if you need it, get a better pipe. as for the head and header, i dont know if youll notice much... :confused:

When im bashing my revo i dont care how tight my turn radius is because my engine is so big it just spins around!! What are you doing with your gladiator? Racing or bashing?

Oh, and if you still have stock tires i would get some good off road tires if bashing!
