Hey, thanks for the quick response....
Indeed, busy busy... Always something to be testing....
Ive ordered a couple more, and ill leave this one well alone this time, apart from changing the oil of course...
I was running mine in 10.5 this weekend just gone.... Like it was on quite a technical out door track and it was great, transformed the car in my opinion... Was able to hug the inside apexs with no issue at all...
Bit more playing to be had me think.
Might have been a little too much for it. I'll be interested to try one up front... Next meeting is at a big open circuit... Im thinking running one up front might help carry some speed round the corners...

Corner speed is worthless if you cant use whats gained comin OFF the corner. A spool lets you do just that (asphalt). A gear diff can still unload like a ball diff, its not a LSD design... so the gear diffs obvious advantage over a ball diff is durability for low wind use.
Sure you can pack a front gear diff with thick oil to simulate a slipper spool, but in the extreme heat we have had here locally, i can imagine its inconsistent feel by the end of the run.
With that said, i think the diff or spool choice will largely fall on the track layout and track surface condition. Setup is subjective and never perfect, and is always best for what works on the largest, fastest part of the track (that doesnt mean just speed though).
Just remember that environment affects your setup. Otherwise you will spend qualifier after qualifier trying to duplicate something someone else tried in a different region... and get frustrated when it doesnt work.
