Have you look at the Xray XB4, Durango or the Yokomo?

I just read talk it up tuesday. I found it interesting that Cav said Rm will be used less and less, and that his MM car has been just as fast as his RM pretty much everywhere.

Do you have a link to that? I'd be interested to see what he says on the topic

I found that interesting too. I would like to see a rear motor class, and mid motor class compete on the same track to really believe they achieve the same lap times.

When I look at what he says about the tracks he's been to I really don't think that he's been to too many dusty tracks lately, mostly just indoor clay and the like. I guess I just need to get both kits and see for myself

And what do you think Cav means when he says 'Pushbreak?'

To all the ball diff experts out there--interesting that AE went from 12 up to 14 balls--the TLR guys didn't seem to be big fans of the 14 ball diffs--wonder how this will play out.....

Its meant to be 'push brake'. It means using some brake on the entry to each corner to help turn in. I remember reading once that he uses very little drag brake but modulates the brakes manually into every corner.

Yes. Manually using the brake properly gives you more control = faster. You really have to get use to it, thats why most people just run a mid/high drag brake. And I don't think rm will ever disappear there's still many clubs with just dirt.

Just curious why if mm is only just as fast as the rm car and the rm car also works on loose tracks why change?

Assocciated has had a better ball diff from the moment they introduced the Stealth. I could never get a Losi diff to be as smooth or trouble-free as an Associated diff. In order to get a Losi diff as smooth, it would take a significant amount of work compared to an Associated diff. I'm figure the new diff is going to be just fine.
