Do any of you guys make better lap times with a 5,7,3 diff setup than 5,5,3 on dry dirt/loose ?

Ive tried both and for some reason i get better lap times for sure with 7k in the center than 5k in the center diff . I like the fact that 5k is easier to drive on dry dirt but with 7k. I just like the forward traction it gives you and more torque out of corners so i guess its just a drivers thing.

5K in the center diff feels like it doesnt give you much Forward traction. I noticed looking at my lap times i could get away from my fastest lap time at 36s at diffrent tracks . I seemed to have faster lap times with 5,7,3 .

I might try diffrent Front tires out and leave the 5k in to see first before i use 7 again . Maybe with the lighter oil in the center diff you need to go up on the Front diff like 7 ?
