Default Geerdiff oil thickness ?

Hi,

I've looked everywhere online but all I've found is conflicting answers. Does thicker oil in a geardiff at the rear make the car rotate less and give you more grip out of the corner or the opposite

Cheers.

Why you don't test this on your local track ?

one run u use 1000wt, second run u use 3000wt and you have your answer. Or you wanna different answers here, too ?

Try it for yourself!

Changed from 1000wt oil to 25wt shock oil. Car rotates much better. Currently running 30wt oil on carpet and loving it.
