I may wind up ditching it after I get it built and tested. Just a matter of droping in a standard center diff and changing the pinion. I'll see once I get it running and decide then. For now I am going to plan on using the 2 speed.

Another benfit of going with a center diff may be better cornering, but once again I can decide this once its up and running.

EDIT: And btw... I'll be runnign rubber tires on this, not foams. It takes standard 1/8 buggy wheels and buggy on road tires.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly
