Default WHY don't any Stadium Trucks have a Bevel Diff ??

Ok I have been racing Nitro and Electric Trucks for the past 7 yrs.

Now I race 8th scale and race my AD2 now and again.

I have no problems with my AD2 diff .

I was watching a heat of Stadiums at my local track and could hear the diffs slipping on our 8th scale track which is a common problem. Yes I know if the diff is built right and the slipper is set for a little slip this would not happen.

WHY dont any manufactory build them with a sealed bevell diff that is bullet proof and can be tuned with diff oil like a 8th scale. ????

The only down side that I can think of is the bevell diff would be a little heavier.. Todays motors are so powerfull you dont need to worry about it.
I run a basic Novarossi that is side exhaust and just 1 HP which is more than enough.

What are your thoughts???
