Does anyone know Ronald's setup for IIC. His car looked awesome and my track is very much like that track.

TOP. But for lower turn classes that gear diff will break.

Yep, 7 Runs with 5,5 T - broken gear

It worked very good after two runs, had lots of fun, but not strong enough.

No news about the Spec R or the Yokomo Gear Diffs - Frustrating !

Should be fine, I've only ran it in 17.5t and 4.5t on a big track. I used brakes at the end of the straight on the first lap with the 4.5t and that stripped the gears inside it first run. However in 17.5t it works fine, just start with thicker oil in the rear and check if it wears fine.
