I am wondering if Mike already has something designed up for it?

I do believe that you would need to make a custom center diff mount

Nice job dude! Sounds like you had a great time, my first time racing I only had 1 lipo!!!!

[zeropointbug]

Would you recommend using the slipperential in the revo?

Also, what is the highest performance tire overall? ...Like a good balance between lateral grip and traction?

What weight# diff fluid should I being running in the rear diff and the front diff?

[BL_RV0]

Slipperential would depend on your driving style.
Tires depend on your track.
I4 think F7 R3 maybe a good starting point.

? you used a sock as your coffee filter today?



haha, what is F7 R3?

[BL_RV0]

Means front 5 rear 7, far as diff oil wt

[zeropointbug]

50 wt. and 70wt. ? Or actually 5 and 7? Isn't that extremely low?

Here are some pics of the track, I know they are bad... forgot my camera on sunday race day, so no videos of me on the track.

For diffs, it will be in thousands, so 5000 and 7000. For shocks, it will be in tens, so 50 and 70.
