honestly, where my tracks are... nobody thinks its even an issue.
EvoIII is as popular as any other Tamiya product and I doubt if
its had any effect on sales. Imho the biggest damper on sales has
been (1) EvoIII stocks sold out very quickly and (2) the Surikarn
took a while to get here, so by then many had grey-imported.
Besides, the diff gear DOES NOT make you DNF your race, unlike
gear & belt problems in other cars. You usually wouldn't know
your EvoIII had lost some teeth until you next check your car,
your car doesn't simply stop dead in the middle of the track.
My ideas for a better car: (off the top of my head- I have more)
... Transponder Mount!!
