Today was the day...
Went to the track for "research" like I told CoyoteSlash..... Had so much fun that I'm still grinning ear to ear! Today was the first time in the last few months since I have been back from a dozen year hiatus that it was FUN! Everything just clicked (even had the confirmation click from the diff as an audio cue). I had never driven any 4wd RC vehicles up until a few months ago....I finally found some flow! MTK clutch basket has worked wonders. CoyoteTek brace has been a lifesaver when darting.... Lol. I see a few more upgrades from Mantis will have to be in my near future!! I just want to give a THANK YOU to one and all on this thread for their help, input, and time spent helping make it an easy place to find answers scout this truck!!
