Spool is Good for Late Braking and Diving in Corners cause you can put power to the last minute before you make your move on Corners. plus wherever you turn your stearing that is where your car will be going, though Since we are on Shafts be ready to commit buying some more Bevel Gears. as spools are Hard on Front bevels, cause of the braking effects whenever you let go of the Power, and you cannot do Gliding on Corners as with Oneways.

Oneways are Perfect for Initial Turns and for those who like Gliding before Corners, Oneways tend to make your Driving more smoother and more quick on Corners. that is if you are not that trigger Happy with your Controller.

As we are all different in Driving Skills and techniques... try other methods and parts to suit your driving capacity... I dont like Spools cause its costly in the long run with bevels and Dog Bones, though spools are great in Big Races... So as far as Im concerned the most I have done with Practice Runs and weekly races, is using both Diff. on Front and Back sort of in between Spool and Oneway.
