This Sport buggy can also handle higher level racing for sure, but to be even more constant and faster some optionals will help. So you can select the sections which you like to upgrade step by step. Start with shock springs and anti-roll bars, which together with other diff-oils and shock-oils and tyres, will already offer a good tuning range.
Enjoy racing !
