Default How do I make my Losi XXXT faster??

I have a pretty much stock XXXT truck and I have raced once in the novice class.
I cant change the motor, in these races so how do I make it faster??
Tires? graphite stuff? thanks in advance.

If you're racing it off-road you CAN change the motor to a Trinity P2K2. These motors are great for dirt tracks and they are legal for stock class racing. Also get some 3300 battery packs, they have lots of punchy power. Enjoy!

if you want it to be faster race in the modified class, and get some tires that hook up.

i am just a beginer. i would not have a chance against them. anyways the owner of the track does not have a modified class and wont let us even race with a modified motor.

the xxx-t does not come with a battery or charger. but u can buy a good 3300 battery from $60 and up. you can buy chargers for$40 and up. prophet charger are pretty good. that is what i have. you can buy much better chargers for $200 but i would not see why we would need one.
