I tried the new SpecR oil gear diff for the MO5 on the weekend with 300 000 wt oil and found this to be as good as the 3Racing oil gear diff. The SpecR comes standard with hardened outdrives and no blades. I think this diff will be staying in my car.I have this fitted to my MO5S car. I decided to use my MO5L for the event below as I know the car is very consistant and easy to drive. My MO5S is still be developed but was very stable in practice, but I decided to stick with the known car.

On the weekend I ran in the ACT Indoor Carpet Titles and had agreat result. I TQ'd and won the finals using the same car setup as I use on asphelt. The only change I made to the car was ride height and tyres. I used small diameter tyres and carried really good corner speed. My car would slide in the rear just the right amount to be fast on the really tight sections of the track. Car weighted 1340 gms and was in MO5L configuration.

For springs I ran short TRF white up front and short TRF red rear. 35 wt oil front and rear, three hole piston front and rear and no swaybars. I run a lot of front toe out on the car using a 1mm or 0.5 mm sppacer on the linkage to the front knuckle. I use all of the Tamiya hopup steering system on my MO5L. Rear hubs 1.5 degree and approx 3 degrees rear camber. My car did not traction roll at all at this event.

Hope that helps someone. Will post pictures later, when I next access my computer. I had a 3Racing oil gear diff fitted with 300 000 wt oil.
