[QUOTE=Gyr0;8213562]What do you guys run in the diffs? As in, I have a one-way, a ball diff, and a solid axle. Should I run the ball diff in front and the one way in the back? WHat do you guys do? thanks[QUOTE]

Run the solid axle in the front when using rubber tires, you will never get the car to flip fast enough with a diff, Dave W posted a good hop up on making a slipper spool which will work good as well. If your running foams then you can use a diff as you will have gobs of steering and traction. On a small tight track leave the one way at home, it is better suited for a long flowing track as they don't react very well to heavy braking.

No, Either PRS, Kimbrough, or Robinson racing spur gears will work with the TC4

1. Any up grades recommended ?

2. What are you using for a battery tie down ?

3 Where is a good place to order wheels/tires from, both rubber and foam ?

4. Recommended tires for asphalt and carpet ?

thanks
1. A good bumper and steel diffs, Thats pretty much it. You will wear more parts out with a good bumper than you will break, I guarantee it. If anything pick up an extra steering rack or two, it will be the most fragile bit when you have a good bumper, like the Parma.

2. The factory battery strap works great.

3.RcBoyz or your local hobby shop.

4. Sweeps, they make many compounds for all different onroad racing applications. I don't run foams can't help much there.
