I basically have mirror'd Martin's setup from Snowbirds if anyone is wondering my setup.

I have 2 gear diff in the rear with 3000 right now.


Other then this quirk I like the car overall, very happy with it.
I think 3000 in the rear is too thick for medium-bite carpet from my experience. I've never used over 2000 unless traction was really high....
