I've never driven novice, although I have marshalled for them. Like I said, that's where the beginners race. So if you have the confidence, go for Amateur!

That's cool. Give it a try, and if it's too easy, move up. In novice, anything goes with buggies and trucks running together, even the Losi DT.
Off-road, I'm currently racing an RB5, T4, and Slash.
The Slash is my first Traxxas and I know you think it's very beginner-ish (and it is somewhat), but it's still tons of fun!

I just wanted to know if you had a Losi so I could have some setup tips for the OCRC track. Do you know anybody who has a xxx-t that goes there on this forum?

Ah, young grasshoppa, you are ready to post in other threads like the ones for OCRC and the XXX-T.
I know F N CUDA goes to OCRC and runs Losi. If you can, just go out there and see who's running Losi and ask them.
Good luck!

It's ok. I kinda liked the drama. 
I went to my LHS and it was a xx-cr or xx buggy!!!! I know because of the chassis design.
Well I didnt mean maintence free diffs as no maintence but alot less than ball diffs where you keep having to clean them u and replacing the diff screw all the time. He said once he started reading about the DT, the more he liked it. Would that be a good racer with a change of tires. Not like aa top of the line one like a xxxt cr, but enough to keep up at the track?

Alright! That means we've got at least a couple of more months of these discussions.

Associated makes some of the best ball diffs in the business. They last quite a bit longer between rebuilds than other brands. When you rebuild a ball diff usually you only replace the diff rings, diff balls, and thrust bearing assembly. I have never had a diff screw go bad. If you are having to replace you diff screw maybe try not overtorqueing the diff. It does not need to be that tight.
I`ve never had a diff screw go bad either , in my Losi cars/trucks . Chris doesn`t know how to properly build and setup a diff . Which is why he has so many problems .
