Tell me about it
Im worried as replacements aren't cheap and Im sure Team C won't replace them like what durango did.
Team C please feel free to contact me if you will replace them.
I don't want to have to replace them once every couple of weeks. Thats the reason I am asking about the TD parts as they can be gotten a little cheaper.
I will look at getting another buggy if the new ones I buy are duds so I don't throw more money down the drain.
Slipper too tight:
Id like to think that was the case but Im not clearing the one long jump we have as I do in the 2wd. I have tested it and the slipper slips

I would agree about the slipper normally, however, on both of mine that have the issue the slipper is set pretty loose. About 3-4 feet of roll out before it stops slipping. We run on a carpet track with chip board jumps and landings so I have to have the slipper loose to deal with the slick sections. I will try and snap a picture tonight if I get a chance.

The ware you getting is crazy but under high bite could be an issue as the center will take most the abuse from the drive train and that large of a motor. I ran a 6.5 in mine for a year before I switched to a gear diff and wore through one set of outdrives. I would reccomend getting the center gear diff if your running on that much of high traction

I have done three race meets using the slipper and have a small amount of wear on the outdrives, about .5mm groove. I have also done two meets with the centre gear diff and it looks to be wearing the outdrives at the same rate. More than I expected to be honest but I must put more time on them to decide if it is an issue. Most running is on a loose 8-th scale style track but a couple of times on carpet.

I got a new one so I'll be setting it as per the manual and also got a tip to shrink wrap the outdrives and have a good amount of grease etc in it.
I will do this and blow them out after every practice and regrease.
Really hope this helps otherwise I'll be getting another buggy.
