For all the gurus out there, please offer a solution...Or shall I change back to the old trusty diff...

Well with a one-way diff, brakes aren't really an option. Especially with rubber tires. Are you using rubber tires? You have to drive with a roll into the corner. Maybe a slight amount of drag brake could be used, but be careful. One-way is mostly designed for this car with foam tires in mind with it ROAR legal.

I am having slight trouble with car loose on power. 33,000 in front and 10,000 in rear. Am going to 5,00 in rear to see if that helps next time. This problem is on parking lot asphalt tracks with rubber tires. Let me know if this rear diff oil change is correct?
Also, is everyone running the kit clutch? Is there any options?
I am wondering if mine is sticking engaged when off throttle sometimes.
Thanks for any help.

the kit clutch is not so good as the clutch spring is too soft and that makes the car lack of punch out of corner. there is an option of harder spring which is coated with blue color.

Well a lot of american tracks are unprepared asphalt surface parking lots. Also high track temps. The only use of one-way diff in a gas car around here is with foam tires on purpose built tracks so far that I have tried. What are your droop settings for one-ways with rubber tires? I currently run 0 mm frt. 3mm rear. Is that clutch spring a Kyosho option? If is, what is the #?
Thanks.

I have yet to see the new Associated TC3 nitro (the new one not the Conversion), but I have already seen the new Tamiya TG10R Shaft Drive and this car is SLICK! Out of the box graphite upperdeck and shock towers, 2 speed, and very adjustabale as well. the one I saw here ran at the last CASTLE hobbies nitro race in San Jose, CA, and the driver (sponsored by Tamiya) was hitting excellent lap times on it and made it to the A Mains Expert class (if you know CASTLE Hobbies races then you know how good the competition there is). That car was VERY fast and i was VERY impressed with it. I talked to the driver of the car and the car costs $220 (no engine and body dunno if it comes with a stock set of wheels or not). I was very impressed with the car, and though I am a KYOSHO fan all the way, I MAY buy one of these cars just for the hell of it.
