Good to hear you like to bbq.. The bpp truck got me worried for a while..

Viruss has his 4S powered lightning with an even lower CG doing backflips at 30 mph+ on a 1930/8 motor. with 50K oil in the diff..

It's rather hard not to get pancakes on the front tires. pancakes loose grip, due to a small contact area with the track/road. I think it would be wise if they started making threaded tires.

Perhaps i should say 'in my very own opinion it would be more impressive if it did that with 10K oil', In other words; I am personally not impressed by a truck that does backflips with 300K oil in the centerdiff with 2500 watts of power... It's common sense (IMO)
A lightning stadium is a whole different creature. We ran 100K on those w/2500watts. It was a simple short video, people asked me to post a video, the camera died when the video ended. The gorilla has no center diff, and is shorter for comparison. You can see in the video, the diff is working...on exit of corners it will still pancake one front tire. I could care less what weight oil it is, I use what works. This truck is only 1700 watts as it sits.
