I have a question about f/r traction, I'm thinking it's a diff fluid problem??? I ran practice (carpet offroad) and the front was pulling like crazy, but the rear was pretty loose entering corners. What can I look at to get better rear traction into corners? Is it a diff thing, a ride height thing, a shock thing or something else? The car has 7k front 3k rear, and 30 f-27.5 r shock oil.

So it's not really a matter of lack of rear grip, but too much front grip? I could rip past 4wd SCT's down the straight in through the sweeper without blinking, but in the infield it was tail happy. I got used to sliding it and grabbing throttle out of the turns, but in a race situation I am gonna get spun out constantly.

The machined spur gears don't fit the 410 as we have found out...

What tires are you running, because on carpet you should not have any problem with sliding?

Tires seem right. What are your ride heights? Go to 19 both front and rear and remove your sway bars. Use dual rate on your radio to calm down the steering.
