everyone whos saying bearings your idiots -.- its a overrated thing.
the night before a race. take out wheel bearings and diff bearings and even clutch bearings.(must be rubber sealed) throw them in the oven for 20mins at 200F.
then cool them via letting them sit out.
your bearings will last 3 times longer
try it. i do it. have lasted 3 months with full time use(mud + water). and still smooth as. never had to pack them or anything. and i use xray bearings.
Xray quility for life!

but when you heat the seal that much... its rubber. it resets its position of the seal so it takes back the area of the bearing it once was in. one sideways landing can bend the seal and open her up. it seats nicely into place when heated with the metal. carefull opening the oven as you might get a bunch of smoke from the crap inside the bearing
common sence really, as for e.g if you were the seal getting pushed aganst etc your likely to move aint you. the seal trys to move when getting shunted by dirt and rushing water mud etc.

To finish, since you're so smart and we are all idiots you must know that most all RC bearing housings are aluminum and the balls are steel.. those two metals expand at different temperatures and you are altering the seating drastically.
Overrated? You're right, since bearings are the core component to allow our vehicles to MOVE. Sheesh
And clearly, beer is the most important spare part.
