Just race/play with it as is. Instead of putting a lot of money into hopping up the Evader you'd be better saving that money and buying an Associated or Losi.

Best hop ups would be all of the Pro version graphite parts.

hank has you heading in the right direction, also varrious tire combinations are crucial if you plan to race. finally better electronics, batts., motors and such.

Not to be a broken record.The best hop-up for you is a Losi Or Associated.
If not then plan on bringing extra parts with you. Because 99% of the electric tracks I've been to are mainly stocked with Losi and associated parts.

If as an inexperienced driver you feel that you might be prone to front end collisions. Get the aluminum front bulkhead. I have found it and another no longer available aftermarket double bulkhead pin brace invaluable for front end durability and stiffness for better handling. A better servo than the stock one is probably even more important. Those are good places to start. I would suggest that if you find yourself replacing any parts available in graphite; then like Hank said, replace them with graphite.

Most importantly take the time to study the old large evader threads on Hobby Talk. They are a great source of valuable information. Knowledge is better than hopups anyday.
