Yes it is very interesting that every one is going shaft... Ofna, kyosho, Yoke, hell even mugen (though they say its rtp (ready to play...) but they know that shaft is beter they are just slowly transitioning... yeah they still are making their belt cars their main ones... cept maybe ofna... but they are reallizing that shafts are the shit... belts just suck... theres no other way to put it... cause with belts theres always more negatives thatn possitives... and eventually they will sell the shafts as the main car for racing.
I dont like mugens aproach though... just make a cheap throw together car and not even try to make it race worthy...
O i meant to ask a while ago what is drag break? lol

Belts are easy to design is one of the main reasons they are used so much. It takes a lot of expertise to properly design a ring/pinion gear box and mass produce it. I tend to agree that from a maintenace side of things belts truly do suck because of how complicated the layouts are to clean, take apart, and pebbles will rip a $10 belt to shreds.

It'll only be a matter of time...
...before we see the foam-tired, 1/8th scale on-road monsters switch over to shaft drive.
