The aim with the feel of the gear diff is if you can close your eyes and it feels ball diff like, you're on the money
Don't get me wrong, the ball diff is the best out there, the gear diff is just more consistent and can handle more motor...

My nano-tech shorty packs arrived today, and I must say what an improvement they make on the car. I had some kyosho battery spacer foam in different sizes, removed the front battery stopper and placed a small piece to protect the servo while still being able to run the battery all the way to the very edge. If I didn't prefer the HV savox servos I would definitely consider that shorty one so I could place the battery even more forward.
I've always been a big fan of kyosho springs, thought I'd try and find a good spring combination and I settled on the buggy soft/white for front and rear. Have been very happy with them, with the shorty pack now though the front and rear have almost perfect balance spring wise.
All that with a tresrey steering plate, lunsford ballstuds, turnbuckles and cups, TD gear diff with kyosho 5k diff oil, absolutely loving this car couldn't be happier.

been reading this thread for a fair while and now finally have the car in my hands and all ready to hit the track
would just like to say thanks to the guys that take the time to share what they find works and does not work with these cars
i will be running mod buggy with a boosted 10.5 which should be plenty for the 2wd
looking forward to turning some laps and giving feed back as well

I'm still running 6 hole pistons. and I asked Hupo Honigl to look at my setup ( outdoor hardpacked clay/dirt.
He advised me to run 4 hole pistons front and rear -
like 4x1,4mm front and 4x1,3mm rear!

Anyone try 22 or B4.1 lunsford turnbuckles?
I figure they may have to be trimmed down, but for 25 for a set of 6 vs 24 for 2 210 buckles, I can break out the dremmel.

Finally ordered my kit.
Only changes I made that worked wonders for me was to change to light red springs up front and 3 degree anti-squat, ride height set to 22mm. Dialed. I may try going to 25 weight oil in the rear shocks, but it feels so good right now, I may just let it ride.... (this was with the full length lipo, will try setup with short pack all the way forward tomorrow).
Yeah keep us posted. I just ordered my 210 kit today
and can't wait to hit up the local So Cal tracks with a good baseline setup.

I'm ordering up some parts for my 210 build and will be using a 7.5t motor and was wondering if 83 RW spur/ 22t pinion is a good starting gear ratio for a medium-sized indoor track?
What springs should I carry with me for med-high traction indoor clay. So far, I'm thinking light red and black fronts. Any other fronts I should get and how about rear springs?
Also, which brand closed cell foams work great with JC gold bar codes? AKA reds?

yep 83 is a good mid range spur, the smallest pinion u can go with with a 83 tooth spur is (99-83) around 16 so FDR range is 13.5 ~ as low as you dare 
. I myself have the 69, 76, 78 and today got the 83 RW spur. Testing and racing saturday with the 83 (with new 10.5 MMM motor).
