No running videos, unfortunately I have no clean pavement to run it on, especially after all the salt and sand scattered on the pavement this winter.
The thick rear diff fluid works well, but I'm going to replace the gear diffs with ball diffs so I can tune them more easily. Also, I'm replacing the one-way pulley on the front gearbox with a normal pulley. The idea of a RWD touring car was interesting for a while, but it wears-out tires too fast, so I'm converting it to 4WD.
Also, I replaced the finned motor with a full 540-size motor, so I could use the same motor in several vehicles. That means 4WD will now be a requirement to make use of the power.
