That's why they can get confusing.

rltanner - Nitro on-road cars will use very thick diff oil. The diffs are very small, and racers will use thick oil to stop the diff from bleeding power to the unloaded wheels, which robs the car of acceleration.

j - Revelation always has a good turnout for club nights. As far as anything big going on this month, I'm not really sure. The Saturday Series is over and the JBRL is winding down. This is just about the time of year where off-road slows down a bit.
Thankx again Aaron
