Make the split diff standard for the other 95% of drivers.

+1 Most of us don't run these mech brakes anyway. So yeah I think the Tekno population would agree that a split diff would be the way to go! I really think this would be a great idea, especially once the other cars come out a lot of us will be running all tekno, so to have three or four diffs to rip out will soon become very annoying to say the least. I switched to Tekno because you guys are great at taking are feedback and making it a reality pretty damn fast, and light years quicker than any other manufacturer by far. Please do this for us! SPLIT DIFF ALL DAY TEKNO!!!

I ran the +1.5 rear toe block today. I set it for 4° of toe in. Want a difference!!! Locked in the rear, and made the buggy soooo much easier to drive! The SCT410 has 4° rear toe stock. Try it out!

Im running AE oil. I tried running a slight bit of anti squat today. The track was crazy loose and i was losing the rear on power a little. I ran the front rear arm pills with the centered hing pin hole. It wasnt enough to make it violent going into the corner but did greatly improve rear bite mid corner and exit. I refuse to shorten the wheelbase because the car just rotates so smooth. Guys at the track couldnt understand how i had so much rear bite. Most cars were looping coming out and pushing going into corners. My car was cutting in great, finishing the corner and squaring up as if there was good traction. I couldnt be more pleased. Its crazy how well this car reacts to setup changes. I make mild changes to my base setup to accomodate track conditions but i dont veer to far from my tried and true.

Really? I just showed up. I got there early. Track was a mess. A 2wd buggy would have been a waste. Crazy layer of dust about 1 inch thick and dry as a bone with an exception of a few wet spots. car was still pimp.

Hardly anyone uses that anyway. The mechanical brakes are an option part already. Make the solid part an option for the mechanical brake.

Make it easy on the 99%. The 1% can buy more option parts to make that work. Hell the mechanical brake parts are already $60 anyway.

I was literally just talking to the guy at Kings Headz today asking him to make a split motor mount/center diff for the EB48 and SCT410. I'd buy it if it existed.
