I'm not far behind you. I dyed my RC10 Team Car's suspension arms florescent yellow in the early 90's. 
I know. I can't believe I thought it looked good either.

What does Futureproof mean?

Diff rebuild
Is it mandatory to use Schumacher grease for a diff rebuild? I assume I could use grease from other brands too, namely HPI.

I used another local company's diff lube and mine are like diamonds right now. It's not hard, just take your time and pay attention to the details.

Free to good home......
I have a charger that I am willing to donate to a young kid in need of a charger. Please check around @ your local tracks. All he or she will have to do is pay for shipping from Orlando, Fl. 32825. I originally purchased this charger to charge my starter box for my nitro car. So if you know some one that doesn't have a lot please send me a P.M.
Thanks,
Eric

"future proof" is a marketing term - meaning that Schumacher are confident that the transmission of the Mi2-EC will stand up to whatever motors/horsepower are developed. It means the transmission handles 2006 motors and batteries with plenty of "capacity" to spare. The evidence so far suggests they are correct - it seems pretty bulletproof.
This is as opposed to the Mi2 where the development of horsepower over the past 2 years was threatening to overwhelm the ability of the tranmission to cope.
That's my understanding of the term, but I could be wrong (I was once).

Is there any mods that would work good for rubber carpet? I have seen a few post with mods, I just don't have time to look in 470 pages. Any advice on setting up a mi2 for rubber will help a lot.
Thank you!
Thank you!

I would suggest testing 5-10wt lighter rear oil and experimenting with silver and black sway bars (same front and rear or stiffer in front).
