I'm not entirely convinced that a gyro would be much helpful in the off-road. I'd really recommend trying one to any one who thinks they mean a real advantage. Just for fun, I borrowed Roland's d-box in the summer and did not find it much helpful as it tries to compensate every time a back breaks loose, making it almost impossible to make any tight turns. Yes, it allows you to go faster, but it does not really help lap times....I'd recommend adding more stickers instead to make the truck go faster

Oh? Well i have personally witnessed a PRO who qualified in the B main at a national event, install one in his 2wd SC truck for the last qualifier and jumped up to the middle of the A. It does work. It is cheating.
