I managed to get my quickest lap down to a 38.5 from a 39.1. My consistency in driving on an offroad track isn't quite there yet but I was hanging around the bottom of the top 10 after each round so not too bad but not great.

The car was much easier to drive with the rear links and the 10K rear diff (thanks to TMizzle).

The front diff had a problem after 5 rounds where it is not acting like a diff very much. I'll need to check into it before the state titles in two weeks time.

Anyhow, that's my report from today. I'll post some pics this week of my version of the rear end mods for all to see.
if you need anything in a hurry Mike, i wont be racing the buggy for a nother month or so . i have 2 new clutch shoes, springs, front upper and lower arms, wing mount and a wing. if you cant get bits in time feel free to use my front diff. wont be needing it for a while good luck for the states.
