I've traditionally done the diff screw head on the left side (driver's side), but have since switched to the Right side (passenger side) regardless of transmission type (3 gear RM vs 3 gear MM and 4 gear MM). Kdub (Kurt Wenger, former AE designer) had this to say on the matter: I think I count as an authority on the matter. I always run my diff screw on the right side (when sitting "inside" the car). I take off the tire and pull the outer hinge pin to get to the adjustment screw.
The right rear is the way the AE manuals state (or used to state). It really shouldn't matter since you go around turns both left and right.

You know VRP have 3x1.4+1.0 pistons too as well as other configurations. Been running these with great success.

Just a random question based off of what you said. What turn motor do you run in mod? It seems like 6.5 turn is really standard and that is what I got. Or is that way overpowered? I run on two track extremes one is more like a large 8th scale track, and the other is a really tight indoor track.

Just a reminder to everyone but more specifically the newer users: Many of the recent questions I have seen asked are answered (or were) in the Wiki at the top of the thread. Additional information is also in the first 2 or 3 posts of the thread. Last but not least you can search this specific thread for some key words and I am quite sure the answer will pop up more than once.
Thanks

Got to comparing manuals between the B6D and the club racer which is basically a B6D with less alum. parts and carbon fiber towers replaced with plastic and sold with low end electronics as a entry level buggy. Was trying to figure out gearing the CR comes with a 72/30 where the B6D comes with a 78 tooth spur and no pinion, why the difference? And if you look at the gear charts in both they are the same and call for a 69/31 for a 17.5 I know people vary from these for track conditions and preference but you would think to start out of the box for the in experienced guy they at least would be the same.
