If it breaks upgrade it. If it doesn't do what you want upgrade it so it does. If you don't know what needs to be upgraded then drive it |

Read the tips and tricks thread in the scx10 section and do all the free mods! It will keep you plenty busy without spending a bunch of $ then just upgrade as stuff breaks.

The only real must have from my experience is metal links hell I didn't change anything till I made more power with brushless then had to do everything but if it's stock just get the link kit and it'll be a beast

my suggestions and yea you can run till it breaks but would be some metal links suspension and steering and some cvds. the cvds will give you more steering degree then the stock dog bones and the metal suspension links will hold up better and metal steering links will get rid of the flex the plastic ones allow. also a metal clamping horn for your servo is a great upgrade. the plastic screw on one tends to strip out easy.
