I have my new to me 2.0 for a couple of weeks now, only been two practice sessions and one race weekend. I bought bigjayjay1's and man am I impressed. I used to run nitro truggy, but sold it at the end of last year to run 2wd short course. I like the way the ebuggy drives. I don't know exactly what set up and esc settings are in it, but the harder I drive, the better it drives. This is coming from someone who used to over drive buggies. I can't wait until the time I get to run it.

I just do it by feel, as tight as possible, but turns free all the way around.

Cool, thanks Jay. I just ran it this past Saturday. Out of 40 buggies, I got 2nd in the C Main and wasn't able to make the bump into the B Main, but the buggies was good all day. Had some very tough competition, there was this Paul C guy there, he was fast! Nice seeing you again Chicky!

Not really. Unless you are on a super-low grip track and need the traction. The smaller gears inside the diffs on the 2.0 need thicker diff oils. 10K and up usually. You could go as light as 7K in the rear diff if you have a lot of bite and need more steering.
