feeling like a spool, I ment : to heavy, to tight.. resulting that the back of the car like to step out when going on throttle.
this is on low traction surface
I now run 50wt losi shock oil in mine, and the gear diff just keep getting better and better every run. smoother and smoother.
I do think that a gear diff is not for dirt out door tracks, but more for high traction carpet indoor tracks.
On dirt you should always run a ball diff for the best feeling.
But Im lazy and I do not feel like setting and tunning a ball diff between heats, that is why I run a gear diff

have you ever seen factory drivers busy on a race day?
all they do all day long between heats is constantly rebuilding diffs for the best feeling and handeling they can get out of a ball diff.
So yeah when you run at the very top , a ball diff needs a lot work and rebuilding. but gives you the best control on dirt.
we club racers do not feel/notice those minor changes in handeling, after a race day with a ball diff.

Servo post: So with all the feedback I got I think the best thing for me to do is just spend a little more time at the track and talk to folks. See what they are using and maybe test some options.
Buggy Bag: Thanks for the feed back and I'll check into that bag that was posted
Foams: Question, can I run any of these on this buggy?

Yep, that's where mine has been almost since initial build. I picked up an sc10 foam pad for the rear..

Nice! What changes did you notice compared to the stock middle/front location?
Where did you get that CF battery holder? Clean and simple.

I am running RM4, so I was looking for a little more steering, but even in RM3 I had it near the front, with maybe a small pad in front. It give the car better balance, and weight transfer..The battery brace is a Diggity designs for the Losi 22, almost a direct bolt on..

How is parts support for Team Durango? I was thinking about trying a 210 but I hear a lot of people talking about parts being out of stock. Is it a good time to buy?
