Well, the being Slow n Steady works for me
Certainly on Saturday, I was able to put consistant laps in without any spins due to the brakes. I'll have to get myself a front diff, I think.
Cheers, Mark.

Yeah... Don't worry. I guess it's how consistant you can go around the track. But don't get too much influenced by that Slow&Steady thingy...
Does not work.

Don't go putting Kyosho gear diffs in the car.

Just managed to take out the stock 3 x 9.7 mm pin on the dogbone and replaced it with 3 x 11.7 mm ones for just the rear diff outdrive side dogbone. Will post pics later.
And for the 3 x 9.7 mm pins on the other side of the dogbone that get flattened and worned out due to overuse
, I took it out also and turned it 90 degrees so that the flattened and worned out part is not in contact with the outdrive anymore. Walla. As good as new set of doggies. This trick is courtesy of NTC3 drivers.

I have just recently bought a nemisis and mazda 6 body but they dont seem to fit, the rear wing mounts are directly on top of the rear posts. How have you guy got around this issue?

Good job of hiding all that dirt with a freshly painted shell. 
I must say that you've improved on your bodyshell trimming from the "old" days...

Ok, question about the bodyshell. How high/low do you trim the body shell? i.e. what is the gap between the bottom of the body shell and the track after the supension has been compressed?
