This weekend I ran 2 gears in the diff - at first with the composite gears, but I blew them up after just 2 runs. Switched to the metal gears from my spare 2wd diff and it ran great all weekend! I tested it as a way to get away with thicker oil (for consistency throughout the run) while reducing how hard it grabs on corner exit. It did really well until A2 and A3 when the track got a little bit dusty, then it wanted to continue to turn on corner exit. Not undriveable, but I would have been faster had I adjusted it. Hard to make that adjustment with all 3 cars in the AAA mains, though!

20K based on Travis Amezcua's recommendation, though I ran the car on clay.
