Is this a clutch problem? Sometimes when I rev it doesnt move at all, other
times it catches. Does something need to be replaced completely, or just
fixed/(clutch worn down)? Thanks..

If you have a slipper clutch, then it sounds like you need to tighten it.
If you don't know what a slipper clutch is, it is probably like two
aluminum discs with a peice of fibrous material between them hook up
somehow to your spur gear. Mine (HPI Nitro MT) has a spring between a nut
and one of the discs, so when you tighten the nut it compresses the spring,
applying more pressure on the discs, making more power go straight to the
wheels straight away.

Oh, sorry for the lack of info. I do no know what kind of clutch...it's a
DuraTrax Street Force GP (touring, 2-speed). Is that enough?
Thanks again,
