Yeah, my friend Timmie runs it with the carbon tub. It's hella fast... and hella free! He ran it on carpet a few weeks back in 17.5. He TQ'd and won. It was pretty fast. I wouldn't mind going back to shaft for fun in 17.5. Just wish Yokomo would come out with a new shaft car. But I do have my Evo IV laying around..... I just need aluminum rear diff for it. Then I'll play with it again. I smoke delrin diffs too easy.
