Do I need special tools to assemble it?

Basic hobby tools such as hex drivers, pliers and a small set of screwdrivers are usually all you need to assemble and maintain the kit.

What maintenance keeps the chassis fresh?

Regular cleaning, checking fasteners, and inspecting the king pins and tyres will keep handling consistent and prevent unexpected failures.

Will upgrades noticeably change handling?

Upgrades such as different tyres, stiffer springs or lightening components can alter balance and responsiveness, but tune incrementally to understand each change.

How do I choose gear ratio for my track?

Select gearing that lets you hit top speed without bogging out of corners; test different pinion sizes and track runs to find the sweet spot.

Is this car good for learning setup basics?

Yes, the GT1-01's clear adjustment points make it a practical platform for learning suspension tuning, toe adjustments and wheelbase effects.

What tyre pressure or prep is needed?

Radial rubber tyres perform best when clean and warmed into use; tyre inserts or foam tuning vary by surface so test small changes to find ideal feel.
