As far as turning with a locked (or very thick oil) CD, I prefer the method where I apply the brake while turning. On grass or asphalt, this results in the truggy just about pivoting around on the inner front tire.

Thats they advantage of the 3 diff setup. I was able to do this with both my buggy and truggy and able to spit out faster track times.

The truggy was fun but not for me. I enjoyed racing my buggy MUCH more than the truggy for some reason. They just seemed a whole lot quicker all around and more durable.

I've got some fairly heavy ones on it right now also - bead locks with some mulchers (not 40 series).
