I suggest starting with 3000wt oil and go from there.

Looking forward to the results. I did turn in some 4wd lap times yesterday with the MM 
So I know I'm on to something. Would like to try white/white but I think it'll just end up in traction rolling end of straight. Like someone mentioned, we have way more traction than most people can even imagine @ TRCR, and at certain times of the day,TRCR has even more that Mikes in B'ham does. For example, we have this little bump on the straight as you enter it and I have t be very careful with the RM but even the MM did some wheelies!

Car ran well, same over all time as usual , was scuffing in fresh tires though.
I like the set up..
A little less traction but more stable , you can driver harder into the corner with out the car stalling.
Tip
Discovered you may like to use the Hard rear camber mount when using the alloy hubs for extra grip. Alloy camber mount + alloy rear hub = less grip.
Also
Alloy hubs
Don't tighten down the set screw very hard as it can blind if to tight.

Either or. Just like loosening and tightening a ball diff. Thicker oil is like a tighter ball diff and vise versa

This inline mod has the Esc placed in the rear of chassis with the inside middle of the water fall trimmed. You put the Esc under the water fall, receiver goes on rear side next to battery like we use to do with b4.
We're also trimming the side rails of chassis brace thinner so the chassis can flex more in the area in front of the water fall to the servo.
Trim the plastic in between the battery thumb screws so battery fits inside.
Doing the mod today.

Curious if folks will want to run the speedo in front of the battery like the TLR. It should fit if you cut the brace after the servo (on the front cradle).
Let us know how it goes.

You guys have something to understand , my cat dump my digital off the desk, its broken....
So I can't give you a image of the mod easy like
I'm gona try to get someone else to go though the trouble for all of you.
Its important, already know from the first test run most of you will like to do.
GTI grey way to stiff for your rear, you need green and switch back to middle hole.
If you feel like it try white rear. I Doublt you will even like compared to green.
Your gona find the B5 has mass grip & like us will be working for more steering & less stall in the corners..
And
middle holes on b5 towers are like the inside holes on b4 .
