Nah, I'm a crap driver who barely even uses active braking most of the time.

Come to think of it though, I suppose I should be able get more life from the outdrives by swapping the center diff's...

Well, I don't know why they're showing wear when the front/rear ones don't, but they do. I've driven something like 150 packs through them in the almost four years I've had the car, so not even all...

Which is something I've always found silly in other instances as well, because at least 99,9% of drivers will not benefit from the utterly miniscule weight difference at all in the real world, while...

Why can't there be non-lightened hardened ones darn it ;) All the other outdrives have barely any wear to them, but the center diff ones have worn about halfway through, which means they'll likely...

I guess there's no "non-lightened" center diff outdrives for the SCTE? Looks like that if I get around to driving as much as I intend to this summer, unlike the previous two, it's likely one or both...

Exactly what I thought when the short course equivalent came out. Not that there's even offroad stock classes around here!

That's nice in that the one thing I never liked about the Teknos, visually, was how narrow the chassis was. Of course performance, durability etc over "naked" look, but still ;)

"Old" post and a bit sidetracked from the thread title... but I can't resist biting. The funny thing is I never really considered Kyosho, and it's because here they are the expensive option. Or at...

I was just contemplating how I rarely seem to see other 2WD cars at my local track these days. Most people drive 1/8 buggy, but even the 1/10 stuff is mostly 4WD. Though I like driving both, and not...

One thing I had apparently goofed was that sway bars were overtightened. Ride height I tried to keep at about 5.5mm, though oddly it kept fluctuating. After the race I was advised to perhaps increase...

"Origination" doesn't really make much sense in this context. And the mess is irrelevant - it's a charging setup in an overstuffed apartment, not a store display booth :p It's hardly perfect, but...

Weeeell, the Tekno isn't particularly new either at this point :p But it could be things like the metric hardware drawing people to it. I sure am getting a headache with these inch screws.
