When I google that part number I don't get any thing. Maybe it's for an older chassis like the RS4 Sport. There are some after market companies that sell their version.

The only way I was able to get those to work on the front S2S is to use a ball diff with them. It seems that the cups on the gear diff is narrower than the ball diff. I will have to measure them when I get a chance.

I did find that part and it's listed for the Sprint. I don't know what the difference is.

Yes, I agree. I have been disappointed because HPI and Tamiya have not been at the IHobby Expo for quite a few years. Team Associated has been there for a couple of years either. I think there were fewer exhibitors this year.

Hey Myron- was really looking forward to seeing you out there. I am going to try and run the rest of the Midwest Grand Slam as well as the Hurricane series in VTA.

I really had a blast all weekend running VTA and had only built the car the week before from spare parts.

I was running a Corally PHI with the Novak Havoc 2S and SS 25.5 with an FDR of 3.4 with a 2 year old Hurricane IP 5000.

Q was running his Photon with a GTB and Ballistic, I don't know what he had ended up for FDR or battery.
